My Polish Mormon Book

At long last, my book on Polish LDS (Mormon) recruitment/conversion process has been printed after working on it for 10-12 years.

This is just the grey version of the book necessary for a doctoral defense. It mainly explores how the wider Polish social background; pre-LDS background/experience; LDS religious training; and LDS social interaction may help or hinder LDS recruitment and conversion. 

By recruitment, I mean the processes that lead to a person joining the LDS Church through receiving LDS baptism/confirmation. In contrast, conversion refers to the different types of temple-going and non-temple going converts that a small number of Poles become after LDS baptism/confirmation.

In the book, there is the traditional doctoral structure of an Introduction (of me as the researcher and the topic); a Literature Review (covering theory on general and LDS conversion process); a Methodology section (justifying my participant observation and interviewing techniques); a Context section (describing the two Warsaw LDS branches where I did my research); the Empirical chapters (relating my data to the theory); and a final chapter which ties everything together, and gives my own view of Polish LDS recruitment/conversion process.
