The first volume in the Chicago History of American Religion series, it reviewed the history of our nation's longest dissenting tradition--a tradition older and richer in the realm of religion than in any other facet of national life. Indeed, Edwin Scott Gaustad argued that religious dissent was essential to the character of the American religious experience and stood in profound disagreement with society's orthodox values and beliefs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new edition, which reinaugurates the Chicago History of American Religion series under the new editorship of John Corrigan, features new commentary by Gaustad and Corrigan on the past thirty years of American religious history and the importance of understanding dissent in American religion today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"This is an important and erudite work which shows the originality and scope which scholarship can bring to human experience.\" --\u003ci\u003eLos Angeles\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e Times \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"We shall understand the religious past and present better for reading Gaustad's brief, well-written, helpful book.\" --\u003ci\u003eCommonweal \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edwin Scott Gaustad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226284514\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226284514\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.62w x 0.44d","brand":"Edwin Scott Gaustad","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45933875560703,"sku":"9780226284514","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_abc3bc01-7222-47c2-b19b-e72c054a6855.jpg?v=1721789786","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dissent-in-american-religion-edwin-scott-gaustad-9780226284514","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
