Reviews

-The Disunity of American Culture is the most difficult book I have ever tried to review. Every chapter of this work is packed with so much fascinating information that each would warrant a complete review of its' own. Caiazza's book offers the most complete history of religion, science, technology, education, atheism, stem-cell research, sexuality, movers and shakers of history, and philosophy ever compiled so effectively in one (277 page) volume. . . . Caiazza's book is in no way one-sided. He gives expert scholarly analysis of every issue involved in bringing us to The Disunity of America.- --Rev. Austin Miles, RenewAmerica.com -John Caiazza provides us with a comprehensive, well-researched, and well-written account of a new form of secularism that has emerged in American culture in the aftermath of the contentious debates involving science vs. religion in the twentieth century. His description of this new 'techno-secularism' is both provocative and worthy of careful analysis. Regardless of whether one agrees with Dr. Caiazza's conclusions, the reader will no doubt find his text to be lucid, informative, and very well argued.- --Herman T.
