Description
The study of religions and the academic discipline of Religious Studies are growing areas in universities in the UK. This introductory guide helps students who are transitioning from secondary school religious studies to university courses, and those starting their study of religion at university with no background in religious education. Get Set for Religious Studies describes the beliefs and practices of the main world religions and explains how students will approach them during their degrees. Written for people new to the discipline, all technical terms are defined and complicated concepts are explained clearly.
