Reviews

When it comes to comprehensive treatments of American religion... Wuthnow sees it steady and sees it whole, and in one or two chapters in his latest book, All in Sync, he tells you all you need to know about the religious situation over the past century.... Wuthnow opens up the particular nexus of spirituality and the arts with rare insight. - David Martin, Times Literary Supplement (tls) Wuthnow's use of real individuals to tell stories of spiritual growth through the use of the arts and music makes his thesis come alive. - Christian Science Monitor
