About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“Woodward’s Java, Indonesia and Islam offers an invaluable corrective to Orientalist depictions of Javanese Islam. While it will no doubt continue to generate debate among scholars of Indonesian Islam, the volume is a critical resource for those attempting to understand not only Islam in Indonesia but Islam in any local context.” (Nancy J. Smith-Hefner, Contemporary Islam, Vol. 7, 2013)
