"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
Aimed at students and teachers of World Religions, this study analysis the subject of marriage and family from the point of view of the different faiths, as well as the beliefs underlying them. It produces accurate and broad information for the use of teachers and students of World Faiths, providing an insight into the faith and practice of their neighbors and a greater understanding of how it feels to belong to a culture different from their own.'Living Faiths' is a series on Rites of Passage in the major religions of the world, covering Initiation Rites, Death and Marriage and the Family. It is a fascinating exercise in tolerance and understanding. The material available in English for such ceremonies varies greatly in different faiths. For example, Buddhist marriage ceremonies are mainly of recent date and have emerged in the West where such ceremonies are presented here in an English translation probably for the first time. The book is introduced with an essay by Professor Ronald Fletcher on the rapidly changing attitudes to marriage and an assessment of their significance. Janet Trotter follows his essay with a description of the legal problems by ethnic minorities in Britain.
John Prickett was a headmaster and Secretary of the Education Department of the British Council of Churches. He was also Publications Secretary of the Standing Conference of Inter-Faith Dialogue in Education.
