Books by Keith (Regius Professor of Divinity Ward

Revelation is a fundamental concept in practically every religion. This book provides a complete analysis of the idea of revelation as found across all five of the great scriptural religions of the world: Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam.

Continuing Keith Ward's series on comparative religion, this book deals with religious views of human nature and destiny. The beliefs of six major traditions are presented including: Advaita Vedanta - the idea of one Supreme Self; and the Vaishnava belief that there is an infinite number of souls.

This study examines and compares key concepts in the four major scriptural faiths of the world: Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Christianity. Focusing on the question of creation, the work reviews the thoughts of modern philosophers on the subject, and considers scientific insights.

Religion is an important social force, both for good and evil, in the modern world. In the final volume of his comparative theology, Keith Ward considers the main ways in which religion and society interact, and the ways in which major world religions need to adapt themselves in the modern world.
