Head and Heart: American Christianities, by Garry Wills

‘In his latest book, “Head and Heart,” Garry Wills surveys the fault lines in U.S. Christianity and argues that the real fracture is between “Enlightened” religion (of the head) and “Evangelical” religion (of the heart). Throughout American history, he writes, Christians have oscillated between these “two poles of religious attraction.” Wills is a liberal Catholic and an outspoken champion of the separation of church and state, so it should not be surprising that his sympathies run with the enlightened camp.’ Read the review at the Washington Post.
