| Summary: | There is an abundance of sociological research available on the topics of religion and urban life—so much so that distinct sub-disciplines (complete with their own journals) have been established for each. In view of the considerable attention given to both urban life and religion, it is astonishing that so little attention has been given to intersections between the two. Recognizing the paucity of research on the religious dimension of urban life, Zelinsky and Matthews provide a thorough examination of the significance of religious structures within an American metropolis, Chicago. |
