I wanted to inform you of a particularly good showing of Missouri State’s Department of Religious Studies in the current issue of the journal Religion. Volume 42, Issue 4 (2012) of Religion contains a review essay by Martha Finch on Manuel Vasquez’s More Than Belief: A Materialist Theory of Religion (pp. 625-631) and books reviews by John Strong on The Schweich Lectures and Biblical Archaeology (pp. 681-683) and former M.A. Student Krista Dalton on The Aroma of Righteousness (pp. 693-696). I invite you to take a look especially at the contributions from our department, although you may well find other pieces of interest too: http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/rrel20/42/4
Congratulations, Krista and Martha!
