What are the epistemological grounds of modern religious education? Through a systematic cross-disciplinary analysis, in historical and contemporary perspective, answering this question was the ambitious task of On Holy Ground. The product of three years’ systematic theoretical research, the 100,000 word monograph provides a comprehensive investigation into the influences on religious education from philosophy and theology, the natural sciences, the social sciences, psychology, phenomenology, politics and the arts. A synthesis of an unusually broad range of literature, On Holy Ground presents a highly original thesis necessitating book-length (rather than separate article) treatment to produce a landmark work in the field.
