en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 mai 2009

Recenzii

'This rich and impressively broad-ranging book does live up to its interdisciplinary billing, and succeeds in making its powerful case: it is a myth that secular modernity represents the end of religion, and a misconception that it excludes religious belief.' - Christopher Watkin, Murray Edwards College, Cambridge, French Studies
