Reviews

This book, which shows how Pentecostalism contributes to the evolution of religious landscape and how it evolves itself, confirms the interest of rigorous analyses to overcome many clichés. [Translated from original French]
*Istina*

Over the past generation, Pentecostalism in Latin America has undergone fundamental shifts, as it adapts to hemispheric transformations in class dynamics, generational identities, popular culture, and politics. This important volume grapples deeply with these changes, pushing us to understand them in light of new theoretical insights about conversion, spiritual careers, and the relationship between religion and society. No scholar or journalist interested in Pentecostalism in Latin America will be able to ignore this book.
*John Burdick, Syracuse University*

A much-needed exploration of new trends in the pluralization of Latin American religious practice. Lindhardt brings together an impressive array of scholars to explore new Pentecostal and Catholic identities, theological innovations, and the impact of second and third generation converts on their churches and society. The book is a must-read for understanding the complexities of the ongoing pentecostalization of religion in Latin America.
*Timothy J. Steigenga, Florida Atlantic University*
