College Religion Class
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This was the required text for an introduction to world religions class I took last year. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and learned a lot about religions and cultures I have been wanting to know more about; as well as gained a new perspective on some religions I was already familiar with. This text takes a historical approach to understanding world religions and has found a way to present foreign ideas and beliefs in such a way that these concepts actually make sense. For those who are concerned, a devout follower of any religion can safely read this without feeling like your personal beliefs are being threatened.
