"Caputo’s book is riveting.... A singular achievement of stylistic brio and impeccable scholarship, it breaks new ground in making a powerful case for treating Derrida as homo religiosis.... There can be no mistaking the importance of Caputo’s work." -- Edith Wyschogrod"No one interested in Derrida, in Caputo, or in the larger question of postmodernism and religion can afford to ignore this pathbreaking study.

What does religion mean to the individual?How are people religious and what do their beliefs, practices and identities mean to them?The individual’s place within studies of religion has tended to be overlooked recently in favour of macro analyses. "Religion and the Individual" draws together authors from around the world to explore belief, practice and identity.

They examine how people embody what religion means to them through practice, consideri
