Sacred Stories, Spiritual Tribes: Finding Religion in Everyday Life
"Nancy Ammerman'sSacred Stories, Spiritual Tribesoffers the most in-depth, yet wide-ranging mapping of religious/spiritual/secular sensibilities in the everyday lives of contemporary Americans yet to emerge. She weaves a tapestry that shatters many of our taken-for-granted assumptions about people's circumscribed life-worlds. The book deserves a serious reading on the part of anyone who would try to describe this emerging, but exceedingly complex mix of the sacred and the secular."--Wade Clark Roof, J.F. Rowny Professor of Religion and Society, University of California at Santa Barbara
