| Summary: | In this wide-ranging and original book, Martin Steven, despite having a “total lack of theological credentials” (p. 68), offers the first thorough analysis of the role of religion, particularly Christianity, in the contemporary British political system. Although Britain's church attendance is low and it is one of the most secularized societies in Europe, the author nevertheless claims that religion continues to exercise an important influence on voting behavior. |
