This text makes use of the latest research and thinking in religious education and pedagogic theory. It leads the reader through a series of modular chapters, building up understanding, knowledge and reading before moving on to a new level of work and reflection. The book consists of two major sections: chapters on the various conceptual tools and areas, equipped with which the student can appreciate the depth, range and imagination of religious belief; and a series of chapters covering the world's major religious traditions, including ancient and modern developments. The book is specifically designed to be ideologically open and, therefore, usable in a wide variety of situations and cultures. Because of its modular design, it is suitable as the basis of a comparative religion course of study.
