Book Review: None of the Above: Nonreligious Identity in the US and Canada

Abstract

In their new book, None of the Above, Joel Thiessen and Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme provide detailed descriptions and comparisons of individuals with no religious affiliation (i.e., “nones”) in both the US and Canada. Scholars who are familiar with the increasingly robust literature on nonreligion will find that this book reinforces much of we know while adding important nuance and a comparative perspective between the US and Canada. For researchers who are less familiar with the literature on nonreligion, None of the Above provides a cutting edge overview of the current state of this area of research.
