Religion in Sociological Perspective, 7th Edition, (ePubPDF) introduces students to the systems of meaning, structure, and belonging that make up the complicated social phenomena we know as religion. Authors David Yamane and Keith A. Roberts use an active learning approach to show the central theories and methods of research in the sociology of religion and show college students how to implement these analytical tools to new groups they encounter.
The latest 7th Edition departs from prior editions by emphasizing that the sociology of religion is an ongoing conversation among scholars in dialogue with current scholarship and the social world. This viewpoint is established in the new second chapter, “Historical Development of the Sociology of Religion.” Other chapters include important voices from the past alongside the views of contemporary sociologists, and conclude with a sight of where the sociology of religion might be heading in the future. At each opportunity, the textbook has been enriched by research and examples that are meant to question parochial limits in the sociology of religion, pushing beyond Christianity, beliefs, congregations, national borders (especially the United States), and even beyond religion itself (to take non-religion more seriously).
