"So quickly is the landscape shifting that students of Latin American religion find it very hard to keep up with the pace. Virginia Garrard-Burnett has redered us all a distinct service by assembling a judiciously selected collection of timely essays by the most respected scholars in the field. These cover - thoroughly and fairly - the historical, political, and cultural settings of recent developments that are transforming the continent from its 500 years of Roman Catholic dominance into kaleidoscope of religious pluralism. An invaluable resource for theologians, policymakers, historias, or anyonw interested in current changes in Latin America." Harvey Cox.
This unique and admirable group of readings shows the full range of religion as practiced in Latin America. It especially opens for readers a vivid view of Latin America and their religion at the grassroots level." Edward L. Cleary.
"Religious change provides quite a window on culture, society, and politics in Latin America. On Earth as It Is in Heaven is an easy-to-read creative introduction to the range of beliefs that Latin Americans hold and how they deploy them." David Stoll.
"On Earth as It is in Heaven is an impressive collection that combines the insights of established authors and young scholars. Folk Catholicism, Liberation Theology, African and indigenous-influenced religions, and Protestantism all receive careful consideration in a style that is accessible to most undergraduate students. Professor now have an important source to turn to when assigning readings for courses on Modern latin America." Todd A. Diacon.
