This volume attempts to review the historical development of Chinese Christianity from a “global-local” or “glocalization” perspective. It includes chapters on the Boxer Movement, Chinese indigenous movements, and Christian higher education and also contains seven biographical chapters. The author expounds upon the interplay of “universal” and “particular” aspects as well as the global and local forces which shaped the characteristics of Chinese Christianity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. This work focused on China could have wider implications for modern scholarship, both in the fields of comparative history of education and modern Chinese church history, for those scholars who are exploring the dialogical interplay between global and local Christianities.

"The tone of the book is more of a personal recollection or reflection than a new and creative whole, but may still serve as an introduction to issues of “global” and “local” in Chinese Christianity for both the generally interested reader and the academic." Fredrik Fallman, University of Gothenburg, Sweden, August 2015
Peter Tze Ming Ng, Ph.D. (1985) from University of London, served as Professor of Religious Education at the Chinese University of Hong Kong for 23 years. He was appointed Henry Martyn Lecturer (2007), and Chairman of Northeast Asian Council for Study of History of Christianity (2007-2009).
