«A New Religious America» is Diana L. Eck's essay on religious diversity, published by HarperCollins in hardback (404 pages, in English).
Diana Eck analyses how the Immigration Act of 1965 opened the doors to Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu and Sikh communities, transforming the religious landscape of the United States. The book visits mosques, temples and meditation centres across the country, and argues that coexistence between faiths is a major challenge for American society.
