“Those of us who teach in undergraduate contexts that stress the importance of understanding not just the basics of ethical reasoning, but also the various shades of meaning ethics can have in the world’s major religions, know how difficult it is to find appropriate resources. Mari Rapela Heidt does an outstanding job of introducing novice ethicists to the field of comparative religious ethics through a concise and practical overview of the moral worlds of Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Daoism, Confucianism, Sikhism, Jainism, Bah’ai and Shinto. This book is sure to find its place as a text in a number of my religious ethics courses.”
