| Summary: | "Using a lively narrative, The Sociology of Religion is an insightful text that follows the logic of actual research, first investigating the facts of religion in all its great diversity, including its practices and beliefs, and then analyzing actual examples of religious developments using relevant conceptual frameworks. As a result, students actively engage in the discovery, learning, and analytical processes as they progress through the text - just as a scholar pursues knowledge in the field and then applies theoretical constructs to interpret findings." "This text is designed for upper-level undergraduate students of Sociology of Religion or Religion and Politics."--BOOK JACKET. |
