Recenzii
Bringing into attention an interesting topic and offering a detailed analysis that is useful both from the sociological, historical and theological point of view, Ben Clements and Stephen Bullivant's book entitled: Catholics in Contemporary Britain published at Oxford University Press in 2022 is not only an useful tool in the sociological field, but also a lecture that could be considered useful for any category of reader interested in understanding the way how Catholicism can be encountered in Britain.
This is a solid book of statistics, the most up to date in forty years. It gives an accurate picture of the skeleton of the British Catholic Church. As in most quantitative research, it offers numbers rather than intellectual questions, yet number have their own irreplaceable value.
This is clearly a landmark study on the Catholic community in Britain which cannot be overlooked by those working in sociology of religion, pastoral theology, or political science.
