How to Do Comparative Religion?: Three Ways, Many Goals

Well-known scholars in the study of religions bring up to date and elucidate the discussion on the three most debated approaches in comparative religion, namely, the hermeneutical, the explanatory or cognitivist and the critical one. The approaches, standpoints and methods of studying religion are disputed in an outspoken and challenging way, critically and radically arguing pros and cons. Full of essential insights into the dialogue of today and of the challenges of tomorrow, the work remains unique and unrivalled.
