Synopsis

Revised and updated to meet the needs of the new specifications, Advanced Religious Studies has been written specifically for AS and A2 students and is therefore comprehensive, accessible and exam focused. There are detailed sections on:
·Philosophy of Religion
·Religious Ethics
·The New Testament

Every topic within each of these three sections is highly structured, with carefully chosen quotations drawn from a range of primary and secondary sources, exam tips, key word glossaries, review questions and revision summaries. There is also a specification summary that helps students match content to level of study and exam board.

The authors, both experienced teachers and examiners, offer a scholarly yet accessible commentary interspersed with regular exam guidance, making this textbook essential reading for all students of A-level Religious Studies.

About the first edition:

'This thoroughly engaging text will
instil students with confidence. It is challenging but never
threatening, comprehensive but always relevant... and should be
accessible to the whole range of AS/A2 candidates. This is a welcome
and major addition to A-level resources in Religious Studies.'

Peter Cole, author of Philosophy of Religion
