Editorial Reviews

Review

In this brief volume Clark has succeeded admirably in providing a concise but comprehensive profile of the Korean church and some suggestions on how history made it the way it is....I highly recommend it.>>>> (The Journal Of Asian Studies )

...will be a welcome addition to those interested in what happens to Christianity in a non-Western, nonwhite world.>>>> (Choice )

Clark's sharp-eyed update on Korean Christianity is the best-balanced, best-informed and most lucid contemporary analysis of an astonishing phenomenon) the emergence in non-Christian Asia of the church in Korea from persecuted sect to national recognition and power in less than a hundred years. The book is short but convincing.>>> (Samuel Hugh Moffett Choice )

...his research is thorough and he includes extensive secular historical information, making this study very useful as a basis for further research. The book is excellent.>>>> (Korean Studies )

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating look at Korea, August 9, 2003
This book provides an interesting look into how Christianity has come into Korea, and its impact in the lives of Koreans. This book also examines how both Korea and Christianity have changed as well as how they both have been strengthened and/or weakened. An enlightening read.
