by Mark Chaves (Author)
Mark Chaves examines the activities and concerns of the over 300,000 religious congregations in the US. He finds that far from being obsessed with political and social issues, most concentrate on ritual, knowledge and beauty, through the cultural activities of worship, religious education and the arts.
