Excellent example of liberation theology

Although this books gets pretty technical with regards to biblical exegesis, it is an excellent example of early Latin American liberation theolgoy and liberationist hermenutics. Written by one of most well known Latin American women theologians. Well worth reading. Very good as a religon course text.
