{"product_id":"the-bloomsbury-handbook-of-religion-laura-hobgood-9781350046825","title":"The Bloomsbury Handbook of Religion and Nature: The Elements","description":"Divided into four parts-Earth, Air, Fire, and Water-this book takes an elemental approach to the study of religion and ecology. It reflects recent theoretical and methodological developments in this field which seek to understand the ways that ideas and matter, minds and bodies exist together within an immanent frame of reference. \u003ci\u003eThe Bloomsbury Handbook of Religion and Nature\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on how these matters materialize in the world around us, thereby addressing key topics in this area of study.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe editors provide an extensive introduction to the book, as well as useful introductions to each of its parts. The volume's international contributors are drawn from the USA, South Africa, Netherlands, Norway, Indonesia, and South Korea, and offer a variety of perspectives, voices, cultural settings, and geographical locales.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis handbook shows that human concern and engagement with material existence is present in all sectors of the global community, regardless of religious tradition. It challenges the traditional methodological approach of comparative religion, and argues that globalization renders a comparative religious approach to the environment insufficient.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Hobgood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350046825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350046825\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 6.90w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2019","brand":"Laura Hobgood","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44064349978879,"sku":"9781350046825","price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_df4463ed-e6aa-45b4-b3d6-d58da8237da0.jpg?v=1685394959","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-bloomsbury-handbook-of-religion-laura-hobgood-9781350046825","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
