- Description
- In the West, women are abandoning traditional religion. Yet they continue to make up the majority of religious adherents. This volume focuses on this seeming paradox by examining the relationship between gender and secularization: women's place in and out of Christianity and in alternative spiritualities and Islam: how questions of secularization differ between faith systems.
