This new work by eminent theologian Dermot Lane is an informed report of progress in the Catholic Church on the importance of dialogue with other religions. The author shows that interreligious dialogue is no longer an option, but is rather part of what it means to be Catholic in the twenty-first century. Adopting a pneumatological approach to dialogue with other religions, Lane shows how a theology of the Holy Spirit is the key to unlocking the riches of other religions.

There is nothing watered-down or condescending about the devotions Joyce has written. She communicates profound spiritual truths in simple language and invites children to enter into the presence of the living God. It fills the tremendous gap between adult devotional books and the "twaddle" which dominates most preschool level Bible story books. Parents and teachers will be able to use these devotions to begin meaningful discussions with children that help their faith to develop and grow. Our prayer is that your children will be challenged and motivated to take the steps to Bigger Faith.- Rob & Cyndy Shearer, the publishers

Providing a rigorous analysis of Buddhist ways of understanding religious diversity, this book develops a new foundation for cross-cultural understanding of religious diversity in our time. Examining the complexity and uniqueness of Buddha’s approach to religious pluralism using four main categories – namely exclusivism, inclusivism, pluralistic-inclusivism and pluralism – the book proposes a cross-cultural and interreligious interpretation of each category, thus avoiding the accusation of intellectual colonialism. The key argument is that, unlike the Buddha, most Buddhist traditions today, including Theravda Buddhism and even the Dalai Lama, consider liberation and the highest stages of spiritual development exclusive to Buddhism. The book suggests that the Buddha rejects many doctrines and practices found in other traditions, and that, for him, there are nonnegotiable ethical and doctrinal standards that correspond to the Dharma. This argument is controversial and likely to ignite a debate among Buddhists from different traditions, especially between conservative and progressive Buddhists. The book fruitfully contributes to the literature on inter-religious dialogue, and is of use to students and scholars of Asian Studies, World Religion and Eastern Philosophy.
