Marakwet

World Religions

“Samuel K. Elolia’s Marakwet masterfully depicts the rich cultural, civic, and religious traditions of the Marakwet people and land. While scholars have addressed the Marakwet people of Kenya, this book is the first work to offer an in-depth analysis and ethnography of Marakwet. Elolia beautifully weaves together archival research and ethnographic data to interrogate the role of religion in everything from land use to social rituals. His scholarship embodies the cutting-edge ethnographic research into indigenous religions that is much needed in the growing field of traditional religions.”

Piety and Power

World Religions

“This excellent book provides the best account of the dynamics of Muslim-Christian relations in West African society available to us. The book is a major contribution to the ongoing debate on the causes of the increasing pace of religious intolerance in contemporary West Africa. No one understands the uneasy relations between the Ummah and the Church in Africa better than Lamin Sanneh.”

The Cambridge Dictionary of Christianity, Two Volume Set

Theology

“This volume is the most impressive and comprehensive dictionary on Christianity available to us. Taking a global perspective, the editor brings together the best minds from diverse regions of the world and various disciplinary backgrounds to produce a global account of the Christian heritage and tradition in its historical, cultural, and social contexts. These fascinating and accessible essays taken together probe deeply into the essence, meaning, and functions of the Christian faith in the twenty-one centuries of its existence. This is a significant work for theologians, scholars of religion, church historians, and all those who are interested in the issues of cultural identity, globalization, and interreligious encounters.”
