Religious rivalries have been at thr root of many human conflicts throughout history. Representatives of nine world religions offer insights into the teachings of noniolence within their tradition, how practice has often fallen short of the ideals, and how they can overcome the contagion of hatred through a return to traditional teachings on nonviolence. Included are a new Foreword and Preface, a new Introduction by Daniel Smith-Christopher, two new chapters on Islam and the indigenous religion of the Maori, and anew Epilogue. In addition, study questions have been added to each chapter.
