This is a well-written, genuinely interesting monograph that merits a broad readership. It deserves a place in all university libraries and will appeal to general readers interested in Scottish identity, Scottish nationalism, and other aspects of contemporary Scotland. I recommend it heartily. * BASR Bulletin * Liam Sutherland offers an informative, detailed and well-researched treatment of perhaps the most important feature of the contemporary religious landscape in Britain. The interconnecting strands of diversity, dialogue and national identity are engaged and explained in an accessible and readable way. * Andrew Dawson, Lancaster University, UK * This book provides an important contribution to the growing scholarly literature on the interfaith movement, taking a critical but empathetic look at a particular organisation. While rooted in the Scottish context, this book has a wider, global significance. A critical intervention into the existing debates. * Paul Michael Hedges, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore * Sutherland offers a profound exploration of the relationship between religion and nationalism, invaluable to scholars and commentators looking at the current public role of religion. Well researched and insightful, this book deserves to be read widely by all those interested in religion in Scotland, the UK and beyond. * Martin Stringer, Martin Stringer Quartet, UK *
