4A1058 .7 E35 PREFACE The present volume attempts to make a study of student life in Japan, China and India. Not less than three-fourths of all the students of Asia are found in their institutions. The consideration of the Near East, and other parts of Asia, was found impossible within the limited scope of this volume. Several friends have criticized portions of the manuscript and have made valuable suggestions. Special thanks are due to Mr. D. Willard Lyon and Mr. Charles H. Fahs; also to Dr. Sidney L. Gulick and Dr. K. Kato for suggestions concerning the chapter on Japan; to Dr. Harlan P. Beach and Mr. P. C. Chang for suggestions for the chapters dealing with China, and to Mr. Frank Slack, Mr. Henry G. Doud and Dr. Robert E. Hume for similar help on the chapter dealing with India; and the writing of the book would have been impossible but for the help and coöperation of Mr. J. Hartley Fowler, and the Secretaries of the Student Volunteer Movement. New York, July, 1915. SHERWOOD EDDY. |
