'As matters of religion become more contentious in Australia, Beck's thorough, clear and insightful analysis of the religion provisions of the Australian constitution is welcome and timely. This book provides a fascinating history of the legal, political and social aspects of one of the few rights provisions of the constitution.' Carolyn Evans, the University of Melbourne, Australia 'The Australian Constitution's references to religion have long been misunderstood. This work of meticulous and engaging scholarship uncovers their true historical origins and explains their foundational meaning. In doing so, it throws light on Australia's historical culture, underlining its significance for both legal and popular understanding of law and religion today. Beck's book will change minds.' Helen Irving, The University of Sydney, Australia
