Letter 3 Leonard Swidler

Letters to Will Book 3 What is a Global Ethic? is Dr. Leonard Swidler's third book in his ground-breaking series "Letters to Will," in which he delves deeply, from all angles, and in a refreshingly objective manner into religion and the historical roots and path of its' development. Written in an easy-to-read, conversational style to his niece Will, Swidler presents his information in a clear, concise, and extremely accessible manner that anyone from the novice religion student to the religion professor can easily understand and relate to.

Letter to Will Book 3 investigates the roots of what Swidler refers to as the Global Ethic - a system of thought and behavior that focuses on the commonalities of today's world religions rather than the elements of them that humans have historically focused on. Especially strong is Swidler's grasp not only of the concept but of its development through time and the multitude of ways it affects the world today.

This is a deep dive into the history of the Global Ethic, the way laws, cultures, and religions have been affected by it, and the importance of achieving a commonality in today's world with modern religious interpretations is all covered in Book 3.

Professor Swidler's thorough and objective conversational writing style and the depth of his knowledge make this book a must have for religion students and casual readers alike.
