Christianity Today, Top 100 Books of the 20th Century (2000) George F. Will "The book from which further debate about church-state relations should begin." The Wall Street Journal "Richard John Neuhaus addresses the relationship of religion and democracy with a steadiness and vitality rare in such discussions. . . The Naked Public Square challenges us to consider afresh the relationship of religion and public life. This book is elegant in execution and sweeping in scope." The New York Times Book Review "A substantial book. It should be read by anyone concerned with the current debates over the emergence of the 'new Christian right." Commentary "This is a large-minded book, and its sophistication and intelligence advance our understanding of the religion/politics issue far beyond the confusions and incomprehensions that dominate most discussions of the subject." Choice "For those interested in the role of religion in American life, this book is a must." Theology Today "Whether readers support or oppose his major contentions, Neuhaus has skillfully produced a lively forum for our moral discourse regarding church-state relations and democratic values."
