Recenzje

"Overall, this new Handbook on Religion and Communication has excellently interwoven what it richly offers with what it promised to communicate and achieve. References are extensive, and the minimal overlaps in topics are explicable considering the depth of its content and scope. Akin to religion and communication, the handbook is certainly a mediated treasure." - Religion and Social Communication, Vol. 21, No. 1 (2023), Journal of the Asia Research Center for Religion and Social Communication"...this book is a welcome addition to the study of religion and communication. Its chapters provide a useful entry point for those just beginning to explore this field of study, and, even for seasoned scholars, the book's discussion of multiple relevant theories, theological perspectives, and practical areas, provide a good primer for expanding their research into new areas." - Mass Communication and Society, Volume 26, Issue 4 (2023)
