Reviews

`Larsen's thesis is intriguing, and supported with a wealth of erudite evidence. ' Anthony Kenny, TLS `Larsen's book is a reminder that you cannot measure the culture of an age by reference to a few controversial figures. ' Jeremy Morris, The Tablet `[The] standard scholarly account has become so entrenched that it is rarely even questioned. Timothy Larsen challenges this common story, and does so brilliantly in Crisis of Doubt ...[it] is a very welcome and timely study of how powerful many of those commonplace historical narratives can become - and of how important it is that we keep questioning them. ' Touchstone Magazine `Puts the psychological explanation of conversion, loss of faith, and reconversion very well into context...Larsen's book is a very interesting one.' The Church Times

Larsen gives us valuable and interesting accounts...A valuable book. David Nash, English Historical Review
