"Obtaining information about America's religious groups can be difficult, providing it to others is a king-sized undertaking. For one thing, there are so many. For another, finding a way to make contact with them to gather facts and figures, especially from the smaller, less highly organized ones, can be a mystery. And then there is the question of which ones to include in a reference book of this kind. Finally, classifying them - that is, under which heading, if any, to place them and how to list them by title - sometimes requires a judgement call or even a bold venture...." - Preface to the Eighth Edition from Handbook of Denominations in the United States
