- Synopsis
- For students, Sire, a speaker and writer who has taught English, philosophy, and theology at universities and seminaries, introduces a variety of worldviews from a Western Christian perspective: theism, deism, naturalism, Marxism, nihilism, existentialism, Eastern monism, New Age philosophy, and postmodernism. He addresses their development and how they underlie how people in the Western world think. This edition has been revised and updated to include a new chapter on Islam by a contributing author, and incorporates developments about the worldview notion from Sire's Naming the Elephant: Worldview as a Concept. The chapter on deism has been expanded to account for diversities in thinking. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
