邦訳：2020年6月・名古屋大学出版会（上下巻）New in paperback. Hardcover was published in 2007. As we see here, today's secular world is characterized not by an absence of religion but rather by the continuing multiplication of new options, religious, spiritual, and anti-religious, which individuals and groups seize on in order to make sence of their lives and give shape to their spiritual aspirations. What this means for the world is what Charles Taylor grapples with, in a book as timely as it is timeless. A New York Times Notable Book of the Year. A Times Literary Supplement Book of the Year.
