Reviews

“Brandner employs both topical and chronological approaches to give us a concise narrative of Hong Kong’s church-state and church-society encounters. He provides rich background and glossarial information on prominent religious actors, faith-based institutions, and evangelistic movements in diverse political and social settings. His logical clarity and empirical insights make this easily accessible book an excellent introduction to the complexity of religious-secular relationship in today’s Hog Kong.” * Joseph Tse-Hei Lee, Professor of History, Pace University, USA *
