Trade Review

"[G]ives the reader a kaleidoscopic vision of power as it has been inflicted, resisted, managed, redirected, and experienced across South Asia."

* Journal of Asian Studies *

"[A] welcome intervention in the field of bhakti studies. The work capably challenges neat narratives."

* Reading Religion *

"This edited volume is an excellent source for navigating the many distinct voices and traditions referred to as bhakti...a much-needed resource for scholars and teachers."

* Religious Studies Review *

"The book should inform and stimulate future studies of bhakti, and its warnings against reading modern concerns into pre-modern sources should be heeded."

* Religions of South Asia *
