Reviews

Something rare: a fair-minded assessment of religious fundamentalism. In this companion volume to a three-part PBS series, Marty and Appleby aim to dissipate the fog of ignorance that surrounds the average understanding of fundamentalism. . . . A useful guide to what is proving to be . . . a historical movement at least as important as Marxist-Leninism. -Kirkus Reviews
