Reviews:
"What Americans Really Believe gives a detailed, comprehensive often surprising snapshot of the most current impulses in American religion. Seven decades of research confirm that about 95% of the American population is interested in religion and spirituality. The results of this survey are an indispensable resource for understanding the American public."
-George H. Gallup Jr., American Public Opinion Statistician
"All who find in statistics precise food for thought ... owe Stark and
his colleagues at Baylor gratitude."
