4 out of 5 stars enchanting overview of world religions w/ lush pictures   August 2, 2008
Very nice synopses of various religions with very helpful blurbs about significant icons in religious artworks. Each religion is presented in general terms, with no doctrine or precepts. Good reference book for informational purposes. Pictures are wonderful.

4 out of 5 stars Decent Book.   February 8, 2008
I had to buy this book for my Comparative Religions course my freshman year. The book is really simplistic and thorough. It can be a bit biased at times but for the most part it is straight to the point. The photography in the book is great.
