Product Description

Book Description

Henry Rosemont puts forth two arguements in this volume: that Western science and education are products of an Abrahamic world view and would not have arisen in a non-Abrahamic religious environment such as India or China; and that all religions, regardless of tradition, enhance our non-material lives by providing direction towards a religious experience, a sense of "fully belonging".
