Empowerment Through Mythological Imaginings in Warrior Women

I found it to be very interesting the way Johnston uses the example of dragons on page 140 to represent how different the Chinese and American mindsets are, and how the level of uncertainty and myth in life is much greater among the Chinese then Americans who according to Johnston are a "reductive" people and refuse accept any uncertainties. According to Johnston the American mindset have very little to no tolerance for that which is unknown , which is very different from the Chinese whose very lives revolve around myth and open ended stories.
