Content
Religies en hun volgelingen zijn altijd gewelddadig - zo luidt een populaire atheïstische claim. Karen Armstrong, prominent deskundige op het gebied van wereldreligies, laat echter zien dat de ware redenen voor oorlog en geweld in onze historie meestal weinig met religie van doen hadden, maar veelal sociaal, economisch of politiek van aard waren.
 In een reis van de prehistorie tot het heden maakt Armstrong duidelijk dat er naast de kruisvaarder die in de middeleeuwen dood en verderf zaaide en de hedendaagse jihadist, ook altijd een Jezus of een Boeddha is geweest, pleitend voor een rechtvaardige en vredige samenleving. Daarmee corrigeert ze het wijdverbreide beeld dat religies schuldig zijn aan het grote bloedvergieten in de geschiedenis. Aan de hand van gedegen onderzoek en in de vorm van een bevlogen betoog maakt de auteur zich sterk voor religieuze ideeën en bewegingen die oorlog en agressie afwijzen en zich inzetten voor gelijkheid, vrede en verzoening.

About the author
Karen Armstrong (1944) is een van de meest vooraanstaande en meest gelezen schrijvers op het gebied van godsdienst. Haar werk is vertaald in veertig talen en omvat bestsellers als Een geschiedenis van God (1995), De strijd om God (2000), Islam (2001) en De kwestie God (2009). Compassie kwam tot stand nadat Armstrong in 2008 een van de drie ted-prijzen had gewonnen. Met het prijzengeld nam ze het initiatief tot de inmiddels wereldwijd ondersteunde Charter for Compassion.

Book condition
An important factor of a second-hand book is the condition of the book. The buyer may not be surprised. Always mention damages or defects. We use a system with 3 stars:
The book is acceptable: you have used it to study and made notes and markings – but everything is still readable. The cover and pages are in good condition.
The book still looks good: there are a few notes in it and you marked it. There are hardly any signs of use on the cover and pages.
The book is (almost) new: you have not written or marked in it. There are no signs of use on the cover and pages.
