More in the @MaterialReligi1 transitions, @hillarykaell joins the team as book review editor, joining Jessica Hughes and taking over after several years work by @isaacweiner27 This is going to be a great team!!
Me too! I’m taking over for @isaacweiner27 as cod-editor of book reviews @MaterialReligi1. Can’t wait to be on the team with @emoprofessor @sarahedees & everyone else. Hats off to @splate1 for making this journal a go-to source for so many of us!
@MaterialReligi1 has some major transitions in 2021! Very exciting for the future of the journal!
In 2003, I co-founded the journal Material Religion, and have served as Managing Editor since then. In 2021, I'll hand things over to @coatesat, along with the new editorial team of @emoprofessor, @sarahedees, and Katja Rakow. It was a tremendous opportunity for me!
