Publisher's Comments (cont.)
This interesting monograph on religious themes of sacrifice in the development of modern, post 9/11 American war culture explores the ways in which underlying Christian influence in American politics and cultural identity shape policy in combating religious fanatics in the Muslim world. The work provides a timely discussion of tropes such as "necessity," Christian salvation, sacrifice, and victimhood underlying political discussion of war. Denton-Borhaug is a professor of religion at Moravian College, Pennsylvania. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
