More Martin Palmer, "World Religions (Times Mapping History)" From Publishers Weekly Palmer, the director of the International Consultancy on Religion, Education and Culture, gathers 24 practitioners and scholars of the world's religions for a majestic introductory volume that traces the historical development and contemporary practices of the world's religions. Opening with a section on the nature of religion, the volume explores the history and practices of ancient religions from Sumer, Egypt, Greece, Rome, and Central and South America. A long section on indigenous religions offers a wealth of material on traditions as diverse as Shinto, Maori religion, African religions and Australian aboriginal religions. The major world religions—Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism—are covered in detail sufficient enough to whet readers' appetites to learn more. Each chapter is richly illustrated with photographs (mostly in color), maps and other works of art in order to demonstrate the living character of each religion. Brief chapters on new religious movements and religion in the modern world admirably introduce such topics as science and theology and women's roles in religions. A time line, glossary and bibliography enhance usefulness. This wealth of material provides a significant starting point for anyone interested in the role of religion in today's world, and the book's low price makes it accessible for all. (Feb.)
