Holistic Contextualization is a very substantive work of scholarship that reviews the history of contextualization from the birth of modern mission in the sixteenth century to the present. Ecumenical in approach, Dasan reviews contributions of Catholic, Mainline Protestant, and Evangelical missionaries and scholars over five centuries of mission outreach, illustrating the breadth and depth of diverse approaches and models to contextualization. He concludes the volume by reviewing ecumenical and evangelical perspectives on holistic mission—evangelism, social action, and ecological concerns—exploring substantive emphases and initiatives in the history of mission in the 20th century, with reflection on applications for the 21st century.
