| Summary: | Balance is rare in books on controversial subjects at the intersection of religion and politics, but balance is a word that has come up repeatedly in descriptions of Lew Daly's provocative new book on faith-based initiatives, God's Economy. Daly, a senior fellow at the public policy research and advocacy organization Demos, demonstrates an artful touch in presenting many sides to this contentious issue. The book is a unique blend of historical and philosophical perspectives on a program that, although associated in name with the administration of George W. Bush, traces its inspiration to the Clinton era and particularly to the legislative efforts of John Ashcroft. |
