520    "This book investigates the role of religion in the 
       context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Southern Africa. 
       Building on a diverse range of methodologies and 
       disciplinary approaches, the book reflects on how religion,
       politics and health have interfaced in Southern African 
       contexts, when faced with the sudden public health 
       emergency caused by the pandemic. Religious actors have 
       played a key role on the frontline throughout the pandemic,
       sometimes posing roadblocks to public health messaging, 
       but more often deploying their resources to help provide 
       effective and timely responses. Drawing on case studies 
       from African Indigenous Knowledge Systems, Islam, 
       Rastafari and various forms of Christianity, this book 
       provides important reflections on the role of religion in 
       crisis response. This book will be of interest to 
       researchers across the fields of African Studies, Health, 
       Politics, and Religious Studies"--|cProvided by publisher.
