Faith, Hype, and Clarity: Teaching about Religion in American Schools and Colleges

By Robert J. Nash

Robert Nash tackles one of today's most difficult and controversial topics--religion in American schools. Nash deftly employs his own classroom experience to achieve a balanced presentation and comprehensive analysis of four different religious perspectives--fundamentalist, prophetic, alternative spiritualities, and post-theist. This ground-breaking volume is a practical pedagogical tool for teachers who want to deal intelligently and responsibly with religion in the classroom.
