This is the first substantial study in Christian Ethics to explore the problem of religion, plurality, and ethics. Why, asks the author, do different religions find it so hard to coexist together? In answering this question, the book ranges widely: culture, ethical method, the Christendom Group of T.S. Eliot, immigration, Rushdie and Islam, Bellah and "civil religion," Neuhaus and "public philosophy," MacIntyre and Milbank, the nature of truth and morality, and the political implications of postmodernism are all discussed.

Book Description
The first substantial study in Christian Ethics to explore the problem of religion, plurality and ethics. Ian Markham argues that plurality is better safeguarded by a theistic, rather than a secularist, foundation, and shows that the religious affirmation of diversity offers genuine political possibilities in our post-modern world.
