“Classic Golden Age science fiction high adventure. It brought back memories of reading Asimov. . . that same sense of wonder. I absolutely loved it.”

Race and Redemption

Evangelism & Missions

“Jane Samson boldly identifies theological anthropology as the key to understanding how, at the height of European imperialism, British Protestant missionaries in the Pacific emerged as figures who confound modernist categories: they were religious men of empirical science, Christian cognoscenti of pagan pasts, and colonial abrogators of racial barriers. Offering nuanced readings of diverse sources, Samson’s thematic study shows how the missionaries’ commitment to a distinctively biblical ontology of human unity informed strategies that extended Christian inclusivity to many aspects of Victorian science and Pacific Island cultures.”
