| Summary: | In many respects children and youths receiving religious instruction in our culture resemble extraterrestrial beings doing an orientation course.

This book is a study of the foundations of religious education, centered around six concepts: religion in a globalizing society, religious tradition, religion, the religious self, learning through participation and interreligious learning. |
