Near Fine in Near Fine DJ: Both book and DJ show only minute indications of use. Book shows only very mild bumping at the lower front corner tip; else flawless; binding square and secure; text clean. DJ shows a bit of wrinkling and a tiny hairline fracture in the paper at the lower front corner tip; else flawless; mylar-protected. Overall, very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 277pp. Hardback with DJ. Robert Wuthnow is the most prolific and most interesting contemporary sociologist of religion, delving again into the ambiguous heart of American spirituality. This study is certainly the most accessible, popular analysis of religious trends since the 1950s, with a startlingly convincing interpretation of how attitudes about religion and spirituality have changed in the post-modern era. Read this and await his next study. Wuthnow's done a great service to our understanding of what sometimes seems to be a most perplexing trend from domestic religion to a kind of amorphous, inauthentic spirituality of seeking.
