Belfast: Christian Journals Limited,1974.. 1st ed.

Secondly, while fully appreciative of the undoubted benefits brought about by the Communist regime, it is shrewdly critical of the means used and therefore of the achievements reached by Mao and his followers. Thirdly, it enables us to watch how the Christian Church, squeezed and then driven underground by the regime, continues to exist, generally in small groups meeting under conditions of secrecy..."
