Religion and Society in Scotland Since 1707 ([Completely rev. and updated new ed.])

From current day sectarianism to the Free Church, religion has had a dominant effect on society in Scotland for centuries.

In this text, the author examines the role of religion in the making of modern Scottish society.

Tackling contemporary themes such as the role of the Kirk in national identity and the growth of secularization, he explains the history of Catholicism, Presbyterianism and Episcopalism over the last 250 years.
