“For those who know Daniel Reid as the author of learned books on Chinese culture, Shots from the Hip may come as a surprise. This astonishing and gripping life story reveals a whole new side to the man in a frank account that embraces sex, drugs and a wild hippy youth spent in some of the world’s most exotic places.”
— Derek Davies, former editor-in-chief of Emphasis Publications in Hong Kong
