In Religions. A Quick Immersion, Taliaferro argues that studying religions is vital to understanding the current diversity of the world population and world history. He further argues that the great world religions offer vibrant, deep spiritual resources for exploring the meaning of our lives today. In this book you will find an accessible introduction to Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and five other religious traditions, in contrast to their secular alternatives. It is a non-dogmatic, open-minded, panoramic tour intended to enlarge one's vision of the similarities and differences among the religions of the world. The book takes seriously the definition of religion, the methods employed in studying religion, and many religious concerns, including the nature of faith, the existence of some ultimate reality (God, Allah, Brahman, Nirvana, the Dao), the practice of prayer and meditation, the problem of suffering, and the possibility of life after death.

ENDORSEMENTS:

Taliaferro provides a breath-taking and highly informative survey of the world's most significant religious traditions. The panoramic vision of religious phenomena displayed in this book will be of great service to many.
