He bases his study on a career's worth of historical, ethnographic and statistical research, to provide both a coherent description of Scotland's current religious complexion and a considered explanation of the forces that shaped it. Scottish Gods is both a fascinating summary of over a century of religious and cultural change, and a searing analysis of the state of religion in Scotland today by one of our leading social historians.Religion and cultureHistory20th centuryScotlandReligion and cultureScotlandHistory20th centuryReligion and cultureReligionHISTORY / Europe / WesternbisacshScotlandReligion20th centuryScotlandReligion21st centuryReligion and cultureHistory20th centuryScotland.Religion and cultureHistoryReligion and culture.Religion.HISTORY / Europe / Western.274.11Bruce Steve1954-1490339UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910786556003321Scottish Gods3714655UNINA
