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.
