Holding Fast/Pressing on

Religion in America in the 1980s

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Jorstad has written the first comprehensive history of American religion in the past decade. . . . Everywhere the tension is between the conservatives holding fast and the liberals pressing on. While Jorstad clearly sympathizes with the latter, he presents a balanced picture of recent religious history. An excellent work of social and historical analysis with insights for the future.
