Religion in the Media Age by Stewart M Hoover

Looking at the everyday interaction of religion and media in our cultural lives, Religion in the Media Age is an exciting new assessment of the state of modern religiosity.

'Few, if any, media scholars are as capable as Stewart Hoover of writing this bookIt provides an insightful review of religion's generally neglected place in the history of media in modernity… The result is a subtle, profound and clear-sighted analysis of some of the most difficult questions that contemporary media and society raise, which I cannot recommend highly enough.' – Nick Couldry, London School of Economics, UK

'Hoover and his team have given us a solid and essential foundation, not only for further research, but also for a more thoroughly practical theology.'- Gary Hall, The Queens Foundation, Birmingham, UK
