Produktbeschreibung

A clarion call for interfaith dialogue in the U.S., this "splendid exposition of non-Christian approaches to God . . . encourages an increased religious literacy that . . . will contribute richness and diversity to our national identity" (Publishers Weekly) In this tenth-anniversary edition of Encountering God, religious scholar Diana Eck shows why dialogue with people of other faiths remains crucial in today's interdependent world-globally, nationally, and even locally. As the director of the Pluralism Project-which seeks to map the new religious diversity of the United States, from Hinduism and Buddhism to Islam-she reveals how her own encounters with other religions have shaped and enlarged her Christian faith toward a bold new Christian pluralism.
