From the Publisher
Each chapter covers a separate religion and begins with helpful introductions, followed by 'Sources': the most formative texts, oral traditions, and commentaries on the tradition.
Distinguishing this collection from most anthologies are its substantial essays that allow a more detailed and sustained discussion of certain topics, as well as brief excerpts from important sacred literature.
Historical, anthropological, philosophical, phenomenological, and sociological approaches to the study of religion are some examples of the perspectives modeled in this text.
The text includes coverage of African religions, Native American religions, and Sikhism.
Kessler's section on Christianity provides Gospel parallels that other anthologies omit.
Important pedagogical features include the Glossary, Suggested Readings, and Research Projects at the end of each chapter.
An appendix gives an Internet directory of religion URLs on the Web
