After a degree in theology and philosophy, John became a barrister and is now a KC specialising in medical law. He cannot think of a better, broader preparation for a legal career than studying religion at A Level or university. This subject taught John to think, both creatively and critically. He says, an education in religion and worldviews also offers a great opportunity to grapple with some of the most important issues people throughout the world have faced since time began.
