Lavishly illustrated with some thirty color photographs and sprinkled with boxed features that focus on fascinating issues, these four volumes offer a marvelous tour of Eastern religions. Covering Islam, Buddhism, Shinto, and Confucianism, the set illuminates the history of each religion, its practices and holy texts, and its sacred places and important figures. Each book concludes with a glossary, a bibliography, and an index. At a time when more and more Americans are becoming interested in world religion, this elegant set is an excellent starting place for spiritual exploration.
