Books on "fundamentalism"
Got into a conversation with someone about fundamentalism, what it is, how it's slippery to define, and realized that I don't have any of my usual go-to books about fundamentalism in my Logos library. In fact, I only have two resources with the word "fundamentalism" in their title in my library: one of them is a magazine issue, and the other is The Dawkins Delusion? Atheist Fundamentalism and the Denial of the Divine. Surely I need more to be able to research this topic thoroughly. So here's what I'd suggest as a start:
- Fundamentalism and American Culture by George M. Marsden
- Understanding Fundamentalism and Evangelicalism by George M. Marsden
- Reforming Fundamentalism by George M. Marsden
- "Fundamentalism" and the Word of God by J.I. Packer
- Fundamentalism by James Barr
- Fundamentalisms Observed (The Fundamentalism Project, v. 1) by Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby
- Fundamentalisms and Society: Reclaiming the Sciences, the Family, and Education (The Fundamentalism Project, v. 2) by Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby
- Fundamentalisms and the State: Remaking Polities, Economies, and Militance (The Fundamentalism Project, v. 3) by Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby
- Accounting for Fundamentalisms: The Dynamic Character of Movements (The Fundamentalism Project, v. 4) by Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby
- Fundamentalisms Comprehended (The Fundamentalism Project, v. 5) by Martin E. Marty and R. Scott Appleby
- Strong Religion: The Rise of Fundamentalisms around the World by Gabriel A. Almond
- The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism by Carl F. H. Henry and Richard J. Mouw
- Catholicism and Fundamentalism: The Attack on "Romanism" by "Bible Christians" by Karl Keating
- Revive Us Again: The Reawakening of American Fundamentalism by Joel A. Carpenter
- Fundamentalism: A Very Short Introduction by Malise Ruthven
- Fundamentalism: The Search For Meaning by Malise Ruthven
- The Battle for God: A History of Fundamentalism by Karen Armstrong
And though it doesn't have "fundamentalism" in the title, I've heard good things about this one:

Do you have
LLS:FNDMNTALS ?
Torrey, R. A., Charles Lee Feinberg, and Warren W. Wiersbe. The Fundamentals: The Famous Sourcebook of Foundational Biblical Truths. Bellingham, WA: Logos Bible Software, 2005.
This is the original source from which the term was derived.

Torrey is essential. Also useful Hankins, Barr, ed. (2008). Evangelicalism and Fundamentalism: A Documentary Reader
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Yes, I have that.
