Customer Reviews

Outstanding Children's Reference!

The whole family enjoyed the page by page layout per religion. Was a great organizer for all the other books that had come before. "Well organized, good balance of pictures and text, and handy comparision fact boxes are a BONUS! The best, most concise book out there! And, a great precursor to DK's Christianity, Buddhism, etc. books! Must have for your well-rounded library!" -- We all agree.

A Very Good Concise Study

This book was a very good concise study of the world religions. I found the contents to be fairly objective, although the final section on Christianity was somewhat favored by the author as it is admittedly her own faith. However, I felt she created a good exterior view of these religions as well as provided some wonderful insight into their customs and dogma. I found it very interesting to study, and by comparison with other texts on the various religions, to be fairly accurate.
