"*Religion and Nationalism in Chinese Societies* is an impressive volume that aims to explore the evolution of religion-state relations, the influence of religion in nationalist discourse and the phenomenon of nationalism as a quasi-religion in the ŸGreater ChinaŒ region (i.e., China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong)." - Jonathan Brasnett, University of Ottawa, *Journal of Chinese Religions*, Volume 47, Number 1, May 2019 "This scholarly work is a much needed volume for the Chinese world with rising nationalistic sentiments." - Mary Li Ma, Calvin College, *Voegelinview*, May 2018
