Review
Grundmann's closes this laborious study with clarifying assessment...and expresses his intention to continue his study on the subject covering the twentieth century. A second volume of the same quality will be very welcome. (Gerard Jansen Missiology: An International Review)
.... for the serious student of medical mission, and for those wishing to grapple with the roots of the twentieth/twenty-first century wave of healthcare mission, this book forms an extremely valuable source of detailed background information. It reveals how many of the strategies, questions and struggles being faced today by those using medical skills in the mission field are echoed in the experiences of the past. (Steve Fouch, CMF Allied Porefessions Secretary Triple Helix)
