Book summary

Media reviews

"It is gratifying to come upon a book that is quiet in tone and reasoned in argument, and that consciously seeks the middle ground--especially when it deals with topics around which the most strident debates have raged. 'The Culture of Disbelief' is such a book..... [Carter's] considerable achievement is rooted in his capacity to think through these crosscurrents and to empathize with people who do not share his political or religious views....A thought-provoking and thoroughly useful book. To those who have maintained, with some justification, that the vital center, the middle ground of civility and reasonability, is disappearing, Stephen Carter can be cited as a counterargument."

  "Carter developed an excellent treatise of the issues, and the political correctness climate of the day. He is surprisingly more conservative than I expected even though markedly reserved in some areas. I enjoyed his insights and opinions even though I do not totally agree with him. As a veteran of 23 years of law enforcement experience, an ordianed minister earning a Doctorate in Theology and Licensed Professional Christian Counselor, I appreciate his approach to the constitional challenges that present themselves to our society today. This has been a cery enjoyable learning process, one which has caused me to re-evaluate my own thinking and beliefs."
