A social and cultural historian, Brown (a specialist in late modern European history, Univ. of Glasgow, UK) has written extensively on secularism, humanism, and atheism. Part of a project that includes Religion and the Demographic Revolution: Women and Secularisation in Canada, Ireland, UK and USA since the 1960s (CH, Jun'13, 50-5537), the present book analyzes individual narratives of loss of religion and identifies patterns based on the narratives. Those studied reflect a wide range of positions about religion, from those who are anti-religion to those who are simply not concerned with religion. Brown provides a framework for understanding the positive impact of secularism in human development based on interviews with people from the US, Canada, and the UK and born between the 1920s and 1960s. The larger patterns diverge secondary to gender and ethnicity, but the whole is considered in Western Christian context. This will be a useful resource for those interested in secularism and humanism. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers, faculty.

Humanism and the Secular West

Becoming Atheist

This is the best introduction to the philosophy of emotion I have read. It covers an impressive amount of topics and debates in an accessible and engaging manner. It is historically accurate and conceptually precise, while also addressing very recent developments in emotion theory. A must read for any student of emotion!

D.A.B Ronald’s admirable book reaches across a range of disciplines as it traces the emergence of the young maritime hero as a locus of sentimentalised national heroism in a time of war. Literary scholars as well as historians of all stripes will find plenty of interest within its pages. Ronald skilfully shapes a wealth of archival material into a compelling account which encompasses ideas of youthfulness, masculinity, sensibility and the family as well as warfare, propaganda, charity and politics. It proves beyond doubt the centrality of naval warfare to British culture during this vital period and I highly recommend it.

It’s about time that someone took on the task of defining the ‘weird’; that deceptively throwaway term that defines so much of what is interesting about popular culture in the US. This excellent collection represents the best of current thinking on the topic.

The American Weird

This book takes a fresh look at new religions, demonstrating that if one looks beyond the clichés and the negative publicity, new religions have under-appreciated cognitive resources, meaningful spiritual practices, innovative organizational features and unexpected creativity, producing cultural and social formations that may have much to teach the rest of the world.

In this volume, Matthias Smalbrugge argues convincingly that we have lost track of the fundamentally referential nature of images. That images are referential at best, Smalbrugge argues, is demonstrated by Augustine’s doctrine of mankind’s fall. By stressing the dogma that sin broke the image of God that mankind possessed in paradise, Augustine focused on dissimilarity, or deconstruction, on an epistemological, moral and ontological level. In the time since Augustine, however, the West has forgotten the notion of the constructive relation of similarity that binds an image and its original. Consequently, we approach images as realities that stand on their own and have lost sight of the originals that stand behind them. This essay – erudite, eloquent, and thoroughly researched – is highly recommended both for specialists in Augustine and ancient thought as well as for anyone who wants to reflect on the history of Western thought and contemporary culture. It invites us to imagine, to hold our images up to the light, and to see them for what they really are.

"This is a fascinating new book on Latin America&rsquo;s most significant intellectual of the left: Jose Carlos Mariátegui. Juan De Castro gives us an incisive analysis of Mariátegui's deeply original understanding of cosmopolitanism, his idea of socialism and his anti-racist interpretations of Peru, Latin America and the world's literature and politics. This book is a must read!"–Federico Finchelstein, author A Brief HIstory of Fascist Lies
