Synopsis

The world's most important religions explained through detailed annotation of sacred texts, religious artifacts, paintings, and architecture. World Religions is a refreshing new approach to understanding different faiths. detailed annotations of stunning illustrations provide intriguing insights into the world's most important religions -- offering a deeper appreciation of the beliefs central to each. The Evolution of Major Faiths: World Religions looks at the beliefs and practices of many different religions, from the ancient Egyptians through to Zoroastrianism -- the oldest "living" religion -- and the great faiths practiced today. Each of the major faiths -- Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism and Islam -- is examined in detail through its sacred texts, epic imagery, key beliefs, and religious artifacts. Unrivaled Insight: The distinctive identities of different faiths are explored in World religions by studying the main principles and thoughts of each religion. The book's generous size and superb reproduction reveal, in glowing detail, the symbolism and meaning in religious imagery and iconography. Clear and informative, World Religions will engage the whole family as much as the serious student.
