Published September 1993
This study looks at the beliefs and practices of the world's major religions - Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, ethnic religions, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Parsism, Shinto, Sikhism and Taoism. The book provides an overview of each religion and gets across something of their emotional appeal. It is taken from the "religions" section of "A Book of Beliefs". Myrtle Langley uses her scholarship and experience of other faiths to give readers popular-level introduction to the faiths which shape the world.
