Críticas:

The importance and impact of the Everson decision on Church and State Jurisprudence cannot be overstated. This timely volume recounts the history, explains its significance, and draws out the implications for current church and state disputes. -- Michael Cromartie, senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center Everson Revisited is a worthwhile reading for students of religion, law, and politics. While not only concentrating on the historical legacy of the Everson decision, the book provides some important insights for those grappling with the contemporary church-state conflicts surrounding religion and education. -- J. David Holocomb, Dallas Baptist University * Journal of Church and State, Vol.41 No.2, Spring 1999 * ...the book provides a valuable polemic. * International Journal Of Education and Religion * This set of high-quality essays sheds much light on this complex and controversial issue. Teachers, administrators, and teacher educators would benefit greatly from reading this book. -- Jonathan K. Parker, Charleston Southern Universtiy * Christian Scholar's Review, Fall 1998 *

Reseña del editor:

Everson Revisited explores the consequences and future implications of Everson v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court case that permitted the use of tax revenue to transport students to parochial schools while simultaneously calling for an impenetrable 'wall of separation' between religion and public schools.
