Reviews
This reader is an interesting document, with a specific focus on the widespread but underestimated social phenomenon of prayer, and the role it may play in different societies. The volume contributes to a broader empirical and theoretical understanding of prayer in a societal context. Wim Vandewiele, University of Leuven/University of Antwerp/IKKS in Journal of Empirical Theology 28 (2015), 150-151.
