Arthur Kroker’s timely work, the ‘New Protestant Ethic”, Born Again Ideology: Religion Technology and Terrorism, is the follow up to Stephen Pfohl’s Left Behind.

Arthur Kroker is Canada Research Chair in Technology, Culture and Theory and Professor of Political Science at the University of Victoria, Canada. |
