Review: The Universe Next Door: A Basic Worldview Catalog

The Universe Next Door: A Basic Worldview Catalog
The Universe Next Door: A Basic Worldview Catalog by James W. Sire
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A great introduction to worldviews. Sire defines worldview as: “. . . a set of presuppositions (or assumptions)which we hold (consciously or subconsciously) about the basic makeup of our world.” It involves what we think about life, death, the afterlife, morality, ethics, absolute truth, etc. In a Christian worldview, we adopt the presuppositions of the Bible. There are other worldviews and Sire does a good job summarizing them. It’s a good book and I recommend it.
