Allan Anderson's latest book, "An Introduction to Pentecostalism: Global Charismatic Christianity" is published by Cambridge University Press.
Anderson, one of the most famous authorities on global Pentecostalism, tries to make the 'non-western' nature of Pentecostalism more visibly without neglecting the importance of the movement initiated by North America.
Giving an innovative interpretation of Pentecostalism, he takes seriously the contributions of the Majority World to its development and, concentrating on its history and theology, reflects on the movement's development and significance throughout the world.
