Description
Summary:If there are scholars of religion who have been away from journal-reading for a while and who desire an intensive exposure to the best historical and comparative work about their topic that has filled the pages of the main professional publications and several edited collections during the past 15 years, they could do no better than to seek out this theory-laden and fact-heavy yet gracefully executed book., Its author, Philip S. Gorski, is one of the most important voices in the historical sociology of religion today, a status that he acquired through the painstaking scholarship of his earlier, award-winning book, The Disciplinary Revolution: Calvinism and the Rise of the State in Early Modern Europe (University of Chicago Press, 2003).
