The World Religions Anthology: Faith, Worldview, Spirituality
provides students with a thoughtful and insightful overview of some
of the religions of the world and helps them identify both the
differences between them and the underlying themes and values that
connect them. The anthology is organized into nine chapters, the
first of which gives students a foundational understanding of what
constitutes religion and how to approach the study of sacred texts.
Additional chapters explore what are often referred to as Eastern
religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, and Jainism.
Students also learn about the Abrahamic religions, studying in turn
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Each chapter includes an
introduction and post-reading questions to provide context and
facilitate learning, reflection, and discussion. The World
Religions Anthology is an exemplary anthology for foundational
courses in world religions and the study of religious texts.
