The conversion of missionaries : liberalism in American Protestant missions in China, 1907-1932 / Lian Xi.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 229-239) and index.

Mission and beyond : Edward H. Hume -- The road that bent : Frank J. Rawlinson -- Changing the mandate of heaven : Pearl S. Buck -- Dismantling denominationalism and the faith of the fathers -- Grafting Christianity onto a Nationalist China -- Toward a union of religions -- The reflex influence.

Like many of her fellow missionaries to China, Pearl Buck found that she was not immune to the influence of her adopted home. Some missionaries even found themselves "convert[ed] ... by the Far East." In this book Lian Xi tells the story of Buck and two other American missionaries to China in the early twentieth century who gradually came to question, and eventually reject, the evangelical basis of Protestant missions as they developed an appreciation for Chinese religions and culture. Lian Xi uses these stories as windows to understanding the development of a broad theological and cultural liberalism within American Protestant missions, which he examines in the second half of the book.
