This fascinating monograph tackles a well-established problem in
the philosophy of education. The problem is the threat posed to the
logical possibility of non-confessional religious education by the
claim that religion constitutes an autonomous language-game or form
of knowledge. Defenders of this claim argue that religion cannot be
understood from the outside: it is impossible to impart religious
understanding unless one is also prepared to impart religious
belief. Michael Hand argues for two central points: first, that
non-confessional religious education would indeed be impossible if
it were true that religion constitutes a distinct form of
knowledge; and, second, that religion does not in fact constitute a
distinct form of knowledge.
