Prison religion

posted by Jonathan VanAntwerpen

Michael Warner blurbs a forthcoming book by Winnifred Fallers Sullivan:

<br />Prison Religion is a remarkable and illuminating book. In narrating a court case over an Iowa ‘faith-based’ prison program, Sullivan manages to combine a balanced account of the trial and its background–informative, fair, and detailed–with wide-ranging reflections on the problems of religion, secularism, and the law. Interdisciplinary in the best way, this book will be provocative and useful for lawyers, historians, and anyone interested in the complicated entanglement that binds evangelicalism and disestablishment in mutually assured misrecognition.”
