Recenzii
"Woodhead and Catto have assembled a powerful and refreshingly diverse team of specialists on contemporary religion and secularism. The result is a volume that is attractively presented and accessible, as well as authoritative. It will be essential reading for anyone who wants to know how and why religion in the UK has changed since 1945, and what its place in our society is today."
- Hugh McLeod, Emeritus Professor of Church History, University of Birmingham, UK
"Based on extensive and wide-ranging research, the various chapters and case studies together present the most complete picture to date of the broad and changing British religious landscape of the postwar decades; from new Christian forms and the settling of Islam, Hinduism, and other religions in British society to new public ritualizations and the spiritualities in youth cultures and popular music. This is a must-read for anyone even remotely interested in the topic."

Descriere
This book offers an unparalleled guide to religion in contemporary Britain. Since 1945 the story of religion in Britain is one of diversity and change. Non-Christian communities have played an increasingly important role, whilst the growth of secularism and the rise of alternative spiritualities have changed both the internal and external religious landscape.
