William Reginald Morse (30 August 1874 – 11 November 1939) was a Canadian author, medical doctor, and medical missionary serving under the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society in Sichuan, West China.[1][2] In 1901 he proceeded to West China where he founded West China Union University.[3] The university was one of the first co-educational medical schools in China that provided western education. Morse also made substantial contributions to the fields of anthropology and medical history through his published works.[4] Morse provided historical insight to the West on the traditional practices of Chinese and Tibetan Medicine.[5] Morse specifically delineated the influence of religion and culture in the evolution of medicine in East Asia. Additionally, Morse wrote several anthropological books that outlined the physical and physiological behavior of the people of Sichuan and Tibet. Morse was interested not only in understanding the vast differences in culture between China and the West, but also communicating these differences to the West.
