Matteo Ricci was among the earliest and most influential of the missionaries to China. In addition to leading many people to the Catholic faith with the use of reasoned arguments and a great understanding of (and deep appreciation for) Chinese culture, he also introduced mathematical and scientific innovations to China from the Western World. Anthony E. Clark, Ph.D., delivers a lecture on this important figure to commemorate the four hundredth anniversary of Riccis death.
