Description

The World Religions Paradigm has been the subject of critique and controversy in Religious Studies for many years. After World Religions provides a rationale for overhauling the World Religions curriculum, as well as a roadmap for doing so. The volume offers concise and practical introductions to cutting-edge Religious Studies method and theory, introducing a wide range of pedagogical situations and innovative solutions. An international team of scholars addresses the challenges presented in their different departmental, institutional, and geographical contexts. Instructors developing syllabi will find supplementary reading lists and specific suggestions to help guide their teaching. Students at all levels will find the book an invaluable entry point into an area of ongoing scholarly debate.

Reviews

"This book will give a fresh impetus to debate in religious studies and religious education journals, and further volumes exploring the issues will appear as a result."

Timothy Fitzgerald, University of Stirling, Scotland

"After World Religions offers practical guidance both for complicating the "World Religions" model in pedagogical contexts and for rethinking the introductory course altogether. The chapters of After World Religions are an excellent tool box for those instructors (both young and old) looking to break out of what is increasingly regarded as a deeply problematic paradigm."

Brent Nongbri, Macquarie University, Australia

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
