- Synopsis
- Multicultural interactions between Americans and Chinese take center stage as social scientists, historians, and other researchers trace the history of 13 Protestant and three Catholic colleges over the half century before they merged into state institutions. Among their topics are American geometries and the architecture of the campuses in China, liberal arts education in English and campus culture at St. John's University, Anglo-American law at Soochow University, the American postwar plan for China's Christian colleges 1943-46, and Umeko Tsuda's Bryn Mawr network and the founding of Tsuda College. The 13 papers are from a September 2003 conference at Wesleyan University. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
