Gillard, David J.

Restless Popular Music, the Christian Story, and the Quest for Ontological Security David J. Gillard - U.S.A. Pickwick Publications 2022 - 238tr. paperback, illustrations 23 cm

This is an enjoyable, thought-provoking, intelligent, and lucid analysis of the significance of popular music in everyday life. As such, it is not simply another book about Christianity and contemporary culture. Rather, Restless is an important contribution to applied theology popular music studies, and the sociology of religion. Of particular value is the engaging analysis of the relationship between popular music and identity construction. This is a fine study that deserves a wide readership.
