It reverses the traditional bias against Christianity, and may in fact inaugurate a more open discussion about religion in general among Chinese in the future. Such profound insights touch upon the very nature of the Christian faith, and bear significance for all Christians, as well as nonbelievers, to rethink their relationship with Christianity. Altogether the book provides a valuable window for understanding Chinese Christianity. -- Liang Chuanshan, Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies -- Journal of Asia Adventist Seminary\u003cbr\u003eChina, Christianity, and the Question of Culture is a brilliant book by a leading scholar, and deserves wide readership. -- G.
