The NEW Maxwell Institute

Last updated on: March 25, 2013 at 5:16 pm By William Hamblin

The new Maxwell Institute has started a blog and a facebook page. http://www.maxwellinstituteblog.org/ https://www.facebook.com/maxwellinstitute They have also announced the board of the new Mormon Studies Review, which will produce one volume a year. http://www.maxwellinstituteblog.org/announcing-the-new-mormon-studies-review-2/ It is crystal clear that for the new Maxwell Institute, Mormon Studies means secular-style studies of nineteenth and twentieth century Mormonism.
