O ovoj e-knjizi

Fasting Through Ages explores the historical and cultural significance of fasting, revealing its role beyond mere deprivation. The book argues that fasting has been a powerful force for spiritual transformation and social cohesion across diverse societies. From ancient rituals in Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism to its modern use for health and wellness, fasting reflects shifting cultural values and scientific understanding. Did you know that fasting has also been used as a form of political protest and social control throughout history? The book progresses by first categorizing types of fasting practices across religious traditions, then analyzing its historical and social contexts, and finally examining the modern resurgence of intermittent fasting. It draws from ancient religious texts, historical chronicles, contemporary scientific studies, and anthropological field reports. By bridging ancient customs with contemporary practices, Fasting Through Ages offers a comprehensive overview of fasting's enduring appeal and its multifaceted impact on human lives.
