|  | A History of Christian Missions in China by Kenneth Latourette
Starting with the religious background of China, Latourette probes why Christianity appealed to the Chinese and then launches into a detailed history of its development. He considers how Christianity began before and coped under the Mongol Dynasty and then the incursion of the Roman Catholic Missions. Briefly considering the Russian Orthodox interest in Chinese missions, he moves on to what is clearly his main concern in the Protestant influx in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Considering the main events of China’s history in relation to the European powers of the day, he considers how Christianity fared into the early nineteenth century. |

Bishop Gregorios Yohanna Ibrahim has here given us an extremely valuable study of the history of music in the Syrian Orthodox Church. This book originated in Bishop Gregorios’ dissatisfaction with the lack of a study which would show where the music of the Syrian church came from, how it was accepted in the church, the basis on which it entered the church, the regional variation in chanting traditions, and the development of church music through time. Bishop Gregorios’ study takes us back to the time of Bardaisan and Ephrem to address these matters and others. But this book contains more than just history. There are also discussions of the eight modes of chant, the Beth Gazo, the Shimo, the names of different hymns and their divisions, excerpts from the Beth Gazo in musical notation, and a general introduction to Syriac music. The majority of the book is in Arabic, but it also includes chapters in Syriac and English. This book will be required reading for all interested in the subject of music in the Syriac tradition.
