This reference book is a brilliant, straightforward way to look up examples of wars and find out about the roles that religion has had to play. The book examines the complex nature of the relationship between religion and war throughout the world, spanning the centuries. The articles are written by a variety of scholars and experts, examining historical and global issues such as the conflict in Northern Ireland, religious feminism and war, pacifism and many more. It would be a good resource to have in a classroom, especially for GCSE and A-level students.

This collection of essays examines opportunities to promote peace through religion. In an era when perspectives of religion have focused on the links between religion and conflict and terrorism, this book helps to promote the positive effect that religion plays in society. The book is an honest and thought-provoking look at the past, present and the future of religion and its role in peace and conflict transformation. The examples are diverse and would be good to use with A-level students as case studies and wider reading.

A must-have for every classroom, this inspiring book offers 25 stories about young people who have changed the world. Greta Thunberg, Felix Finkbeiner, Thandiwe Chama and Emma González, plus heroes from recent history, such as Anne Frank and Claudette Colvin are just a few of the examples of the young people included. Though not all of these young people are motivated by religious belief, many of the stories can be connected to learning in Religious Studies, especially when it comes to social change. There is a wonderful section at the end of each profile that gives students practical suggestions about how they can make a difference in their own lives. This accessible book is suitable for KS3 and GCSE students looking for examples of people who have made a difference. 

This book tells the stories of peacemakers who use their faith and put it into action across the globe, working to create and maintain peace in areas affected by war and conflict.

There is also a second volume, which has follow-up stories and informative techniques for organising community action and bringing hope.

One man thinks religion provides guidance on the right way to live, another man expresses that this is possible without the principles of any religion.
