The four volumes of The World's Religions series provides a new and authoritative account of the complex patterns of religious development, teaching and practice in Islam, the religions of Asia, Judaism and Christianity, and traditional religions and new religious movements worldwide.
Individual chapters are written in a scholarly but non-technical style by internationally acknowledged specialists, and provide the `inside view'. Each volume clearly presents the theological and philosophical basis of the beliefs covered, and explains their history, expression and everyday practice.
Whether you follow a particular creed, or none, the volumes of The World's Religions provide the guide to the richness of this worldwide phenomenon.
