In Christianity and Education in Modern China, Wong Man Kong, George Kam Wah Mak, and other contributors demonstrate how Christianity served as a driving force in the development of modern education in China. Each of the chapters offers new insights into Christian involvement in different issues concerning education in modern China. The contributors examine how Christian missionaries and Chinese Christian educators interacted with China's social, cultural, and political contexts. Also explored are the Christian legacies of higher education in mainland China and Taiwan, as well as how the spirit of Christian higher education in modern China has been carried on in Asia. This volume suggests that Western missionary and Chinese Christian perspectives of higher education were complementary with each other in modern China.

Wong Man Kong is professor of history at Hong Kong Baptist University and an honorary research senior fellow in history at the University of Queensland, Australia. He is the co-editor of Hong Kong History: Themes in Global Perspective. George Kam Wah Mak is an associate professor in the Department of Religion and Philosophy and a fellow in the Centre for Sino-Christian Studies at Hong Kong Baptist University. He is the author of Protestant Bible Translation and Mandarin as the National Language of China.
