| Summary: | New religious movement (NRM) research is now turning to how the movements of the 1960s and their adherents have fared after a generation of existence. E. Burke Rochford Jr.'s Hare Krishna Transformed is a compelling example of the deep insights such longitudinal studies can yield into the ways NRMs must accommodate themselves to broader cultural change in order to survive. The strength of this study is Rochford's meticulous data gathering—skills honed over thirty years of study of ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) communities around the world. |
