Description

"Here is a unique view of the world's religions in their geographical and historical contexts. Edited by one of leading historians of religion, the Atlas portrays the origins, historical development, and present state of all major religious traditions - from the first organized religions in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and China to the many forms of faith in today's world.". "Through the use of some two hundred visually arresting maps, the Atlas provides both a systematic overview of the global development of religions and a more detailed introduction to the religions in various parts of the world."--BOOK JACKET.
