Recensioner i media

“This tour de force in anthropology of religion is based on the author’s fieldwork. ... Thorough, copiously documented, and well- written, Gez’s work has implications for descriptive and constructive theologies that try to attend to grassroots beliefs, especially phenomenologies of African theology and global pentecostalism.” (Christopher A. Stephenson, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 47 (4), December, 2021)
