<i>Freedom, Faiths and Futures by Singleton</i> et al. is among the best presentations of research into the religious worldview of generation Z. The authors amplify the voices of young people, providing an analysis of data that gives expression to these voices, rather than dampening them through methodological rigour. These are voices that need to be heard.

This book offers a thorough investigation of the perspectives of young Australians and is a must-read for scholars exploring youth and religion.
Sarah-Jane Page, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, Aston University, UK
<i>Freedoms, Faiths and Futures</i> uses data gathered from Australian teens to chart a new course in the study of religion/worldviews. Using categories beyond traditional religious identities, it provides insights into what Australian teens are thinking and offers a new typology for understanding systems of meaning.
Pamela Dickey Young, Professor of Religion, Queen's University, Canada
A topical and significant book ... The authors have presented valuable research data in a convincing narrative that gives voice to the young people that they have interviewed, while contributing to the growing literature on religious diversity in the sociology of religion.
