Since the mid-19th century, imperial reformers, Republicans, Guomindang party cadres, and Communists have all prioritized science and technology. Elman offers an account of the evolution of native Chinese science over four centuries under the influence of missionaries. In the end, he argues, the Chinese produced modern science on their own terms.
