Publisher's Notes
This is the new paperback edition of Families and Religions. American families and religions are facing a challenge -- the challenge of adapting to a rapidly changing society. In the midst of a self-oriented culture, the ties are being strained between family, church and individual. This book examines a spectrum of responses to changing social norms, and assesses the role that religion plays in modern family life. The authors seek to interpret the problems faced by one of our most basic social institutions through a variety of perspectives. `The macroperspective and editorial unity are everywhere evident, but readers will also appreciate many individual articles...Definitely recommended.' -- Choice, April 1984
`The book is...an interesting sociological exploration of the relationship between modern families and their religions.' -- The Review and Expositor, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Spring 1987.@Q
