Encyclopedia of Religion in the South
ISBN: 9780865547582 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 854 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. The publication of the Encyclopedia of Religion in the South in 1984 signaled the rise in the scholarly interest in the study of Religion in the South.
