“In the best tradition of the genre, this splendid Atlas of Religion in China reveals patterns—and prompts questions—about a world we have known only incompletely. Scholars will mine its insights for a long time, and anyone with an interest in modern China will find this book invaluable.”- David Bodenhamer, The Polis Center, IUPUI“This is the most sophisticated and comprehensive mapping ever of the official statistics for recognized religious institutions in China today. It provides a spatial analysis of religious activity that is many times greater than official statistics suggest.”- Peter K. Bol, Harvard University Nowhere has there been such a comprehensive mapping of religions at the national, provincial and county levels in contemporary China. An extremely valuable addition to the literature, with beautiful maps that bring to life the religious landscape in contemporary China. A treasure for the library!"- Lily Kong, Singapore Management University"Een atlas staat meestal niet op het lijstje van missiologen, maar dit boek is zeker aan te bevelen (...) Al met al geeft dit mooie boek een indrukwekkend beeld van de diversiteit van de religies en een bijzondere inkijk in de terugkeer van het religieuze leven in China".- Bas Plaisir, TussenRuimte 2019, 3.
