John McCormick, an Associate Professor of Political Science at the Indianapolis University campus of Indiana University and a former Visiting Professor at the Center for European Studies at Exeter University in Britain, in his book "Contemporary Britain": "One of the most notable trends in British religion in recent years has been its growing diversity." Once the world's foremost industrial power, Britain has had a profound effect on the course of world affairs. While its political and cultural legacy remains strong, Britain has had to adapt to a new and radically different globalized order. (McCormick, J. (2012). Contemporary Britain. Palgrave Macmillan.)
