520 _a'The new edition of this popular textbook has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect recent global developments. The book retains the unique and compelling narrative-style approach which has proved so successful with students; reflecting the ways in which ancient stories from diverse religions, such as the Bhagavad Gita and the lives of Jesus and Buddha, have been used to project an ethical framework and provide ethical orientation in the modern world.
