商品描述
Cultivating religious literacy through diverse stories and dynamic learning tools
A breakout success in its first edition, Religion Matters employs an innovative four-part model for understanding the uniqueness of each religion. It builds religious literacy through storytelling― incorporating stories that animate beliefs and practices and illuminate the internal diversity within religious traditions. Unparalleled tools for student learning further build religious literacy and provide opportunities for engagement with the sights and sounds of religious life. In the Second Edition, a new Norton Illumine Ebook promotes active reading through confidence-building Check Your Understanding questions that offer rich, answer-specific feedback; supportive audio pronunciations; and engaging videos. A new chapter on Yoruba religion enriches and expands the thoughtful coverage of the diversity of religions through an engrossing telling of history and lived experiences of Yoruba practitioners in Africa and the Americas.
