Reviews

The four editors of the Routledge Handbook of Religion in Global Society are to be congratulated on bringing together a stellar team of scholars, both established and emergent, in a publication that is vibrant, varied and packed with information. The book is characterised by inclusivity of subject matter and approaches, and is above all truly contemporary, providing readers with a snapshot of religion in the evermore globalised and interdependent twenty-first century. Carole M. Cusack, Professor, The University of Sydney
