What you will find inside

The title is counted among the core literature at the border of religious studies and theology. It is accessible to people starting out with the subject, and at the same time is often used in university studies and self-study.

A reader interested in world religions who wants to compare different spiritual paths gets a coherent, narrative account instead of a dry list of facts. It is a good choice if you want to understand what religious studies deals with and why people have sought answers in faith for centuries. The author writes clearly, avoids jargon and maintains respect for each of the traditions described. The book complements reading in philosophy and the history of religions well.
