Résumé :	"A massive shift in Western religious attitudes has taken place almost without our noticing it. The Judeo-Christian tradition of Western culture has slowly but steadily been eclipsed by a new way of viewing spirituality." "This shift has been in the making for some three hundred years. James Herrick tells the story of how the old view has been dismantled and a new one created not primarily through academic or institutional channels but by means of popular religious media - books, speeches, magazines and pamphlets, as well as movies, plays, music, radio interviews, television programs and websites."--BOOK JACKET.
