This book traces the history of the growth of Christianity in Asia and presents studies as well as personal observations of oriental religions. It discusses at length the general features of popular Hinduism, philosophic Hinduism, difficulties in the Hindu mind in regard to Christianity, variety and extent of Buddhism, and the role of Confucianism in the awakening of China. Also, it takes stock of the method and success of Asiatic missions. America’s responsibility to the Orients has been outlined as well.
