Reviews

This informative volume distinctively examines Latin American, Caribbean, Central American, and US Latinx religions in an integrated manner. Broad in its methodological, ecumenical, and interfaith scope, the volume provides a superb introduction to the study of Latinx religions for both experts and newcomers alike. * Timothy Matovina, author of Latino Catholicism: Transformation in America’s Largest Church, USA * A much-needed and excellent resource for students and faculty. The volume is comprehensive, and Dr. Barba and his contributors are the best scholars writing about the complexity and diversity of Latin American and US Latino Religions today. Highly recommend. * Kristy Nabhan-Warren,, Professor of Religious Studies, The University of Iowa, USA *
