This book provides for parallel study of the values held by different communities, exploring the ethical foundations of Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

Each section introduces a different religion and sets the wider context within which more specific questions can be asked.

Individual topics can be accessed and understood not only within a tradition as a whole but also across traditions through careful indexing.

The following topics are then addressed as appropriate to the given traditions: Religious Identity and Authority; Personal and Private?; Marriage and Family; Influence on and Use of Time and Money; Quality and Value of Life; Questions of Right and Wrong; Equality and Difference; National Divisions, War and Peace; and Global Issues.
