Book Synopsis Faithonomics by : Torkel Brekke
Book excerpt: About religion today, but takes "sweeping detours" through the history of religious marketplaces, from the dominance of Catholicism in medieval Europe (achieved through its system of franchising, or "MacDonaldization") to the truly free religious marketplaces that flourished in ancient South-East Asia, before today's Buddhist monopolies set in.
