Religion V1: Just Religion (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780028663524)

Religion: Just Religion explores social justice issues concerning race, gender, class, and the environment and the ways in which religion interacts with and influences them. Composed of eighteen thematic chapters, this volume begins each discussion with a historical overview, proceeds to several chapters on how religion approaches and shapes the topic at hand, and concludes with a chapter on continuing challenges and concerns. This volume closes with a section on the human future, including a discussion of trans humanism and futurism within the study of religion. Using an interdisciplinary approach, undergraduate and lay readers are given a deeper understanding of the study of religion. Chapters are written by eminent scholars, are peer reviewed, and offer bibliographies to encourage further exploration. The volume concludes with a glossary and a comprehensive index.
