AnnotationThis monograph is based on a paper initially written for the Archbishop of Canterbury's Commission on Urban Priority Areas by Davie. Dr Ahern's study was completed after Davie's submission but as his empirical findings are of significance to the conclusions made by Davie, the two works have been brought together in this volume as two distinct parts. Part one: "The nature of belief in the inner city" by Davie and Part two: '"I do believe in Christmas", white working-class people and Anglican clergy in inner-city London' by Ahern (research commissioned by the Christian Evidence Society). Ahern's study is based in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, undertaken as an independent, sociological investigation. (KJ).
