The Universe Next Door
A Basic Worldview Catalog
Book • 2010
For more than forty years, *The Universe Next Door* has set the standard for introducing worldviews.
James Sire uses his widely influential model of eight basic worldview questions to examine worldviews such as theism, deism, naturalism, Marxism, nihilism, existentialism, Eastern monism, New Age philosophy, postmodernism, and Islam.
The book critiques each worldview within its own frame of reference and in comparison to others, providing an overview of intellectual history and insight into Western thought and culture.
The sixth edition, updated by Jim Hoover, includes new explanatory sidebars, charts, and a chapter on challenges to a Christian worldview in the twenty-first century.
