Reviews

“Jonathan A. Seitz’s book is a much-needed and timely study that seeks to critically understand the ideas of the earliest Protestant missionaries to China.” —Christopher A. Daily, author of Robert Morrison and the Protestant Plan for China “Protestant Missionaries in China adds a new dimension to evaluating the translation and publishing ministry of Robert Morrison, and its analytical insights should throw light on the contemporary debate about different forms of the ‘Sinification of Christianity.’” —Joseph Tse-Hei Lee, editor of Christianizing South China
