Glory and the Power: The Fundamentalist Challenge to the Modern World

In this accessible volume -- a companion to the PBS TV and NPR radio series ³The Glory and the Power²-- Prof. Marty, and Appleby, associate director of The AAAS Fundamentalism Project, provide an essential guide to the ³fundamentals of fundamentalism.² Through their well-informed commentary and keen interpretation, we gain a deeper understanding of how the fundamentalists¹ approach to faith sets them apart from other believers, whether liberal, moderate, or orthodox. Searching behind the rhetoric and publicity to compare fundamentalisms in the U.S., Israel, Egypt, and elsewhere, they show us that whatever else fundamentalist movements may be, they are certain to play a significant part in the destiny of the world¹s nations for decades to come. Photos.Marty, Martine is the author of 'Glory and the Power: The Fundamentalist Challenge to the Modern World' with ISBN 9780756793456 and ISBN 0756793459.
