Author Description

Building on the success of Edinburgh University Press's highly acclaimed Atlas of Global Christianity, this volume is the ninth in a series of reference works that takes the analysis of worldwide Christianity to a deeper level of detail. It focuses on Christianity in Eastern and Southern Europe, covering every country and offering both reliable empirically researched demographic information and original interpretative essays by indigenous scholars and practitioners. It maps the religion's patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyses key themes, and examines current trends. As a comprehensive account of the presence of Christianity in every country in Eastern and Southern Europe, this volume will become a standard work of reference in its field.
