Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a captivating biography of Samuel F. Green, a 19th-century missionary doctor whose life and work in Ceylon (present-day Sri Lanka) offers a unique perspective on the history of Christian missions. It explores Green's early life, his decision to become a missionary, and his experiences in Ceylon, where he established a successful medical practice and became a respected figure in the community. The author provides insights into Green's personal struggles, his dedication to his faith, and the challenges he faced as a foreigner in a foreign land. The book also examines the broader context of Christian missions in the 19th century and the impact of Western medicine on non-Western cultures. It sheds light on the complex relationship between religious belief, cultural change, and the provision of healthcare in a colonial setting. Ultimately, it highlights Green's legacy as a pioneer in medical missions and his lasting contribution to the understanding of Christianity and its role in the world.
