Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Critics praise Rowland's work as a valuable and illuminating resource exploring the impact of theology on personal identity and ideology. Reading Religion highlights its relevance to historical and contemporary discussions, while The Heythrop Journal commends her success in unpacking the key themes of the scholars studied. Emery de Gaal notes Rowland's deep cultural knowledge and calls the book a precious contribution filling a notable gap in understanding the Catholic intellectual resistance to National-Socialism.
