Additional Info
Although our age witnesses vast problems, it has also occasioned unprecedented encounters among world religions. This short volume seeks to capture the energy and dynamism of world religious traditions_a central force in human history and society_for illuminating and addressing major global issues: population growth, environmental destruction, freedom, the rights of women and minorities, the place of economics and work, issues of sexuality and the body. Based on consultations of leading scholars and religious leaders from a variety of traditions, it highlights the special insights and lessons each has to offer today.

Eminent ethicist Daniel Maguire here conveys the deep humanism and commitment that animate these potentially world-changing traditions.
