Ways of Worship Great Resource for Kids and Adults

I was really impressed with the tastefulness and thoughtfulness applied in this book to world faiths. Each major faith group was explained in regards to origins, faith practices and philosophies. Denominations and factions of each faith were also explained, giving reasons behind the different belief groups within each faith.The color illustrations throughout the book were not only pretty, but accurate. I was also impressed with the last chapters that covered primative faiths, newer faiths and cult movements. The author gave simple advice to avoiding destructive cults and a large bibliography for further research.Over all, I think this book is a must have for home schoolers who are teaching world cultures and/or social studies. The book explains how each religion has influenced thier region and shaped modern culture. It would be good for multifaith situations and interfaith schooling too.
