Sinai Holy Church, Nuer, Pentecostalism, Pocomania, Santería, Southern Christian Leadership Conference, Unification Church, and Yoruba.

Photos, illustrations, and source material round out the package. This book was conceived and developed by Berkshire Publishing Group and originally published by Routledge.
