Religions of the World (New ed)

A pack of six volumes introducing the world's major religions -Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam and Sikhism.

Each volume covers a particular religion, including a look at its history, sacred texts, worship in the home, places of worship, pilgrimage, festivals, rites of passage and family life.

They include points of view of people of the relevant faith; extracts from sacred texts and quotes from key religious figures; and boxes highlighting particular symbols and customs.

These volumes aim to offer an accessible approach and contain discussions of contemporary religious issues.
