description:
If
customs,
language,
clothing, and
food are like
the leaves of a
tree, then the
underlying
worldview is
like the trunk
and branches.
Until we grasp
our own
worldview and we
all have one
then we cannot
hope to
understand other
people's. David
Burnett
explains:
The
major
contemporary
worldviews
including
secular,
traditional,
Hindu, Buddhist,
Chinese, and
Islamic.
The
biblical
worldview
Our own
basic
assumptions
The way
these radically
different
worldviews
interact
Basic
principles in
communicating
the Gospel to
those with other
perspectives.
Dr.
Burnett asks
fundamental
questions of
each worldview.
What is "real"?
What is "human"?
What is "truth"?
His wealth of
research and
many examples
make Clash of
Worlds a delight
to read.
This new
edition is fully
revised with
updated
references and
statistics, and
an important
extra chapter on
the Buddhist
worldview.
