Recenzje

«Mkunga Mtingele has gifted his readers with a provocative volume, in which an insider takes a candid look at the practice and failings of a tradition which he holds dear. It is fine example of what critical theology should do. Any historian working on the ACT in post-colonial period will ignore this work at their peril. It deserves to be a vade mecum (or handbook) within the discipline.»
