For those of us concerned with the relationship of religion to public policy, Chuck Dunn has collected an All-Star team of scholars to discuss the central issues of faith and freedom. A welcome and timely contribution. -- Gary L. Gregg II, University of Louisville Thoughtful and provocative essays on aspects of the relationship between the Christian faith and public life. I particularly appreciated the authors efforts to sketch, based on previous and current patterns, its possible interplay in the future. -- Corwin E. Smidt, Calvin College A very timely and high quality collection of essays by some of the leading thinkers grappling with issues of faith and freedom. In our troubled times, students, scholars, and laypersons alike can benefit from the thoughtful reflections contained in these essays. -- Mark J. Rozell, George Mason University, author; The New Politics of the Old South: An Introduction to Southern Politics, Sixth Edition This valuable collection of pieces by leading public intellectuals will be sure to stimulate further debate about the appropriate relationship between organized religion and the state in the United States. -- Laura R. Olson, Clemson University A clear and concise review of historic and contemporary issues arising from the nexus of religion and politics. Recommended. * CHOICE * I found this book a most thought-provoking set of essays; better yet, a discussion-provoking set. The list of authors is impressive and their ideas fresh. I don't agree with all of them, of course, but the ideas are cogently argued with wit and wisdom -- Paul Weber, University of Louisville This collection is an excellent primer for jogging important discussion about how Christians should endeavor to retain or reclaim their position as prominent, competent, and credible critics of the contemporary culture. * Religion & Liberty * This volume is a great place to turn for a concise argument for Christian engagement with the intellect and politics, or Noll's latest thoughts about the prospects for an evangelical mind. * Journal Of Interdisciplinary Studies *
