Book Summary
In this highly provocative book, C. John Sommerville examines common linguistic uses of the terms "religion," "religious," "spiritual," and "secular" in order to discern the proper use of these words in contemporary American culture. Sommerville then redeploys these definitions to examine the ways that institutions in the fields of education, science, law, politics and religion are affected - often in unexpected ways - by a shared set of assumptions about what these words mean.
