Lints's exposition is filled with keen insights concerning all these topics and by emphasizing the complex roles of religious beliefs in the era he also offers fresh perspectives. This is a work of cultural analysis that rewards careful reading.' George Marsden, University of Notre Dame, USA '[Lints's] book is an important corrective to the cartoon version of the '60s as a fight between reactionary religion and progressive secularity.' Church Times 'Richard Lints has provided a brilliant interpretation of what actually happened in the Sixties that puts religion at the centre of the picture. The range of sources he can draw on is impressive. As well as being familiar with evangelicalism, he is also able to chart the history of Anglo-American philosophy in the 20th century, arguing that the end of foundationalism was the key event in the second half of the 20th century. Despite the range of material, Lints writes clearly and many readers will be excited by the story he tells. To people like me who came of age in this period, he makes sense of the experiences we passed through and helps us to come to a retrospective understanding of what was happening in those heady days.'
