Clash of Worlds by David Burnett

How do Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and others think? Is the West making crucial errors? What can Christians do? If customs, language, clothing and food are like the leaves of a tree, then the underlying worldview is like the trunk and branches. Until we grasp our own worldview, then we cannot hope to understand other people's. In this text, Dr Burnett asks fundamental questions of each worldview.
'Clash of Worlds is beautifully written, illustrated with a multitude of anecdotes, reveals a profound scholarship, and has the great virtue of keeping tenaciously to the subject' - Dr Peter Cotterell, former Principal, London Bible College
Dr David Burnett is the Director of Studies at All Nations Christian College, and a Fellow of the Royal. Anthropological Institute. He has served as a missionary in India, and is author of a number of distinguished books including World of the Spirits, The Spirit of Hinduism and The Spirit of Buddhism.
