Neighboring Faiths commends itself for use in many contexts. . . . His book builds on his years of classroom teaching on the subject and of leading students on study tours to encounter people's lived religion in various parts of the world. That all bears fruit in this engaging volume., Neighboring Faiths commends itself for use in many contexts. . . . His book builds on his years of classroom teaching on the subject and of leading students on study tours to encounter people's lived religion in various parts of the world. That all bears fruit in this engaging volume., [E]ncourage[s] empathetic understanding of non-Christian faiths, as well as informed and respectful interreligious dialogue, while firmly embracing a commitment to Christian belief that resists relativistic or homogenizing forms of pluralism., Corduan's work has a number of strengths that make it an excellent textbook. First, he lays out the major points of a given religion in a way that is concise and easily readable without being simplistic. . . . Second, the writer repeatedly emphasizes the distinction between an official version of a given religion and its often widely divergent daily practice . . . Third, in a field of academic study frequently compromised by Christian writers, this work is firmly evangelical without being aggressive or polemic. . . . Neighboring Faiths is the finest work on world religions available on the market today.
