Paperback Edition

My book on religious rhetoric in presidential campaigns (Presidential Campaign Rhetoric in an Age of Confessional Politics) is now available in an updated paperback version. In addition to being cheaper (and lighter), the edition includes a new afterword about the role religion played in the 2012 Republican presidential primary. The cover of the book, which has always featured photos I took of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, now is well-suited for the 2012 general election.The book, which has won the Wilbur Award for best nonfiction book from the Religion Communicators Council and the Bruce E. Gronbeck Political Communication Research Award from the Carl Couch Center for Social and Internet Research, has been featured by CNN.com, Church & State magazine, and various newspapers and radio programs. I hope you will get a copy!
