This volume summarises the most recent research findings on this phenomenon. It presents 21 single case studies, qualitative and quantitative results from over 1000 participants in the Bielefeld based cross-cultural study on deconversion. The authors look at various fields of deconversion: detachment from churches and established religious communities but also breakaways from new-religious and fundamentalist groups. It is the objective of the study to analyse the variety of the deconvert's biographies with a special focus on personality, motivation, religious development, psychological make-up. The results are especially interesting for counselling and pastoral care, for teachers of religious education as well as social and street workers." --Book Jacket.
