The book discusses about the Christianity in China. In the decade since the end of the Cultural Revolution, visitors to China have invaribly observed the revival of interest in religion among the Chinese. I many cities and villages throughout China, temples, mosques and church buildings have been restored and many new ones are being constructed in response to the need for more places of worship. The reaction of Chinese authorities towards such signs of religious resurgence has been one of great tolerance. Contrasting sharply with the Cultural Revolution period, the era of the Four Modernization's has been characterized by the freedom to worship and to propagate religion. In such an atmosphere, even Christianity, previously regarded by the Chinese as a foreign religion, has gained many new adherents. --Introduction
