Mikhail Borodin, a Bolshevik Party member, became one of Moscow's most influential foreign operatives in China in the early 1920s. The access to many previously inaccessible Russian and Chinese archival sources after the collapse of the former Soviet Union made it possible for scholars to conduct a new study on Borodin's Mission to China. Perhaps the most extraordinary finding to emerge from the new sources is that it was not the Comintern, but the Soviet Politburo, acting on Stalin's recommendation, sent Borodin to China. His assignments there went far beyond “making revolution.” While in China, he was involved in almost every important aspect of Soviet operations, including secret diplomacy, dealing with all factions: the Nationalists, the Communists, and the various warlords, as well as the warlord-controlled Beijing government. Without a proper understanding of Borodin's Mission to China, it would be next to impossible to comprehend Moscow's policies toward China in the 1920s.

a wide array of primary sources, such as a host of publications by Beijing YWCA and various archived materials from newspapers, magazines, local chronicles and so on. Moreover, the chapters are well structured. For example, the lasting contribution of Beijing YWCA to the city’s modernization in the epilogue makes the entire study more complete. Zhang also places her argument in context by providing sufficient background information, such as the description of Beijing’s layout and facilities in the early republican era, which can support her defense of the Beijing YWCA’s modernization efforts. However, two points deserve further exploration. One is adding the case analysis of several representative women to explain the influence of the Beijing YWCA. Through the close description of the Beijing YWCA, the author selected a variety of activities, like Better Homes and Baby Welfare, camping trips, to make a thorough analysis. But adding several cases to describe the specific contribution of the Beijing YWCA women vividly would make the argument more convincing. For example, Ding Shujing, the general secretary of the Beijing YWCA, could be used as a case for further elaboration. Another suggestion is to compare the Beijing YWCA with other local branches in depth, like Shanghai YWCA and Canton YWCA. Although Zhang compared the residential composition and activities of the YWCA’s hostels in Nanjing and Shanghai, it seems that there is less discussion about the differences and similarities in other parts, such as the schools and playgrounds for children, recreational activities for women, etc. All in all, Zhang’s work is really inspiring for the study of Chinese YWCA and women in Republican China.
