In this edition, updated to reflect recent events and trends, Wald (political science, U. of Florida, Gainesville) and Calhoun-Brown (political science, Georgia State U., Atlanta) show how religious ideas, institutions, movements and communities figure in American political life. They cover whether the US is in fact a secular society, the relationship between religion and American political culture, the various aspects of church and state relations and conflicts, instances of the mobilization of religious interests and politics in the name of religion, and public opinion. They closely examine evangelical Christianity, mainline faiths, and ethnic, sexual and religious minorities. Finally, they comment on the cases for and against religious influence in politics. The list of references is valuable and impressive. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
