Shook, presents a comprehensive scholarly examination of secularism across concepts, governance, politics, social life, and ethics. The volume maps key distinctions such as the “secular,” secularization, and secularism, then explores secular governments in multiple regions and debates over church–state relations. It also addresses secular experience, nonreligious life, moral theory, humanism, and topics including secular spirituality and life extension.","The Oxford Handbook of  \nSECULARISM  \nSECULARISM  \nEdited by  \nPHIL ZUCKERMAN  \nand  \nJOHN R .
