Descriere
The Devil is Disorder explores constructions of the body, health, illness and wider misfortune in a Trinidadian village where evangelical Christianity is growing in popularity. Based on long-term ethnography, the book takes a nuanced cosmological approach to situate evangelical Christian understandings.
