## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for quick reference
*by H***K on January 21, 2026*

Good book. Good for quick reference.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent information without being overwhelming
*by N***N on February 23, 2024*

I got this book for a niece who is exploring religions. The book covers all the major religions of the world as well as a lot of the minor ones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ complete, interesting, and unbiased
*by T***Y on December 11, 2002*

Unlike other books that claim to present an unbiased, fair view of the religions of the world, this one actually delivers on that promise. It discusses in depth the various major religions, offering pictures of artifacts, religious ceremonial equipment, and illustrations of the gods/goddesses involved. I was impressed by the religious timelines, continental graphs by religious practices, and Golden Rule section that closes the book (saying to basically be respectful of others' views). This book does not endorse any of the religions, nor does it neglect any of them either. If you are shopping for an impartial, complete, detailed account of all of the world's major religions, I highly recommend this book to you. "Prejudice is the child of Ignorance." -- W. Hazlitt
