Inhaltsangabe

The World Religions Reader includes materials relating to six of the world's most influential religious traditions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Sikhism. These religions are considered in their global setting, and the selection of readings strikes a balance between providing an account of their historical development and exploring their beliefs and practices in the context of the latter half of the twentieth century. A study of three thematic topics - sacred place, women in religion, and making moral decisions - provides another perspective on the same faiths.
The World Religions Reader includes examples from the foundational and classical sources of each religion, readings that signpost significant developments within the faiths, and more recent statements from those within these traditions.
