" Rethinking Philosophy of Religion with Wittgenstein makes a strikingly original contribution not only to a 'globally engaged' philosophy of religion and to Wittgenstein studies, but also to the broader fields of the study of religions and comparative philosophy. Exhibiting a deep and nuanced understanding of Wittgenstein's methods, Carroll deftly brings them into productive and critical dialogue with issues concerning the concept of religion, the intersection between religion and racism, and Chinese religious and philosophical traditions. The work thus has both cross-cultural and interdisciplinary scope." -- Mikel Burley, University of Leeds, UK "Thomas Carroll's magnificent new book takes us on a journey through ever-changing landscapes of diverse religiosities. His studies of religiosity in China and of the relationships between racism and religion in the United States undermine dogmatic tendencies in philosophy of religion and offer us greater understanding of issues of great contemporary relevance." -- Robert Vinten, Lisbon Universidade Nova, Portugal "[Carroll's second monograph] makes significant contributions to the field, furthering the vital changes underway in the philosophy of religion . These multiple directions of applying a Wittgensteinian ethic of perspicuity are enormously rich and fruitful; scholars and students will have much to gain from engaging Carroll's latest work." -- CHOICE.
