Rezensionen

"Based on research Mueller conducted for over a decade, this is a book grounded in theory and empirical evidence. Perhaps wishing to include too much at times, this volume is still an exciting contribution to the study of contemporary American media and the representation and position of alternative faiths and lifestyles on American soil." - Iren E. Annus, University of Szeged
