by Niniani Smart
Lecturer in the History and Philosophy of Religion King's College, London
Mr. Smart considers why it is that a growing number of people in the West -and not least in this country-reject the religious tradition of their own Christian civilisation in favour of what the East has to offer them.

Illustrated talk by Denis Matthewa
