Recenzii
'Bouma's references to theoretical and research resources are authoritative and, in my view, worth the value of the book. The suggested reading, references and index at the back of the book are second-to-none. The book is strong on analysis, diagnosis, trends, surveys, and aetiology, rather than prescription.' Insights
'The Professor … is positive about the remaining and growing 'spirituality' outside, as well as inside, organised religion.' Church Times

Descriere
This fascinating book challenges the idea that religious and spiritual life in Australia is in decline.
