"This book will give a fresh impetus to debate in religious studies and religious education journals, and further volumes exploring the issues will appear as a result." – Timothy Fitzgerald, University of Stirling, Scotland

"After World Religions offers practical guidance both for complicating the 'World Religions' model in pedagogical contexts and for rethinking the introductory course altogether... an excellent tool box for those instructors looking to break out of what is increasingly regarded as a deeply problematic paradigm." – Brent Nongbri, Macquarie University, Australia
