Product Review
‘If a single theme runs through this anthology, it is an appreciation of the process of secularization. Here, however, secularization does not trumpet the demise of religion but provides a lens through which to scrutinize the shifting location and function of religion in urban, industrial, complex societies. Of value as a reference tool at all readership levels.’

‘The volume takes the reader immediately to the most interesting issues currently debated in the discipline.’
International Review of Biblical Studies"This is a milestone of a book."
Journal of Contemporary Religion"Within the cover there is a very stimulating companion indeed - a more than adequate travel guide for any student or scholar seeking a lively and insightful introduction to the contours of the sociology of religion."
