Buddhist Responses to Christianity in Postwar Taiwan
"Pacey’s study fulfills his commitment to shed light on areas such as the scope of Buddhist-Christian engagement in postwar Taiwan, its political relevance and impact on Buddhist identity formation, and the ways in which Buddhism adapted itself to the peculiar kind of modernity endorsed by the Guómínd.ng. [...] Both well researched and nicely edited, this book is warmly recommended to scholars and students of East Asian religions and modern Buddhism."
- Ugo Dessì, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 48, No. 2, June 202
