Abstract

The article is a review of the book "Dicionário de ciência da religião" (Dictionary of Religious Science), released in 2020 and organized by Frank Usarski, Alfredo Teixeira, and João Décio Passos. The book is the first technical dictionary of religious science in the Portuguese language and covers the Brazilian and Lusophone reality. However, the review points out some weaknesses, such as the authors' centralization at PUC-SP (Pontifical Catholic University of São Paulo) and the lack of entries on important personalities in the field of religious science. Despite this, the work is considered essential for those who wish to conduct scientific research on religions in Portuguese-speaking countries. [Extracted from the article]
