Dang! What a Great Book! November 24, 2004 Lynn Ellingwood (Webster, NY United States) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful book. It took me hours to read and I read it thoroughly and slowly to absorb everything I could. Later, I'll use it as a resource, but this book is great! I have never read an encyclopedia of world religions that was so complete and interesting. The writing is great. I'm crazy about the Usborne series and my students love them too. I'll have to say goodbye to this book for awhile as my students will be grabbing it up.
A great overview for kids AND adults March 3, 2003 M. C. (Queens, NY United States) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. As a teacher I thought I had a pretty good grasp of world religions. This book enlightened me even more. Easy to read without being condescending or patronizing. Excellent photos and graphics throughout. And it covers a broad range of religions from all over the world, even some that are no longer being practiced. Every page has internet links where you can research more information. A worthwhile purchase!
