A historical introduction to key principles in the sociology of religion with an emphasis on the United States past and present.
Sociology of Religion, Fourth Edition, introduces students to key principles in the sociological understanding of religion. It offers an overview of the nature and function of religious institutions and practices, asking sociological questions about the changing role of religion in today’s “post-traditional” world.
