Religion has flourished in cyberspace, bringing individuals together, helping to consolidate fringe religions, promoting activism and evangelism, and providing sites for the promotion and examination of specific issues. E-Religion is one of the first systematic scholarly studies of religion on the Web. Providing a clear outline of Web epistemology and theory, the book outlines the key methodologies for the study of e-religions. The book will be invaluable to students of religion, sociology and technology.
"A truly excellent reference work with its extensive review of recent studies related to a number of disciplines, upon which many scholars will undoubtedly build.'"

"...Karaflogka's book is a valuable contribution to the field in that it addresses important issues touched upon by previous researchers, but not analysed further, and it presents tools for a more accurate analysis of religious web sites.'"
