Report
[T]his book reflects what it claims to reflect: the seemingly ever-accelerating shift away from the New Mormon History toward a far more diverse and eclectic study of the Mormon tradition. It presents the best of more traditional scholarship, and gestures toward the new, and even most of those essays that are more traditional in focus and scope, like Matthew J. Grow's 'The Modern Mormon Church,' point at their conclusion toward areas of future study and scholarship. It would serve as an invaluable resource for scholars interested in getting a handle on the state of the field, and will serve those more experience. Matthew Bowman, Religious Studies Review
