Recenzii
It has great relevance to Catholic readers.
This book focuses exclusively on baby boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) from the UK and Canada who left the Anglican Church... The book concludes with a discussion of what those who left do believe.
Taking a more ethnographic approach, Abby Day, in Why Baby Boomers Turned from Religion, focuses on the breakdown of intergenerational transmission as a key reason for religion's decline, at least in the west.
This book is of particular interest to scholars in sociology and religious studies and is an important contribution to advancing existing scholarship on secularisation, religious change, and decline amongst ex-Anglican Baby Boomers. It is easy to read, and its empirical data provide the reader with a sense of how religious decline can play out on the individual level.
