Summary:

The Strange Death of Moral Britain is a study of moral change, secularization, loss of identity, and the growth of deviant behavior in Britain in the twentieth century. Based on detailed scholarship, it is tightly argued and clearly written with a minimum of jargon. It is of continuing interest to scholars in religious studies and British social history, and to a general reading public concerned with timely moral controversies.
