These possibilities are drawn from theoretical and practical sources and thus provide opportunities for greater social revitalization.

The author works from the assumption that various fields of study, while analytically separated, do manifest a fundamental coherence.

Michael Gauvreau reassesses the explanations of the role of religion in English-Canadian society put forth in the last twenty years by Ramsay Cook, A.B. McKillop, and Richard Allen, and makes an important contribution to our understanding of the relationship between theology, culture, and society.
