Religion in Five Minutes provides an accessible and lively
introduction to the questions about religion and religious
behaviour that interest most of us, whether or not we personally
identify with - or practice - a religion. Suitable for beginning
students and the general reader, the book offers more than 60 brief
essays on a wide range of fascinating questions about religion and
its study, such as: How did religion start? What religion is the
oldest? Who are the Nones? Why do women seem to play lesser roles
in many religions? What's the difference between a religion and a
cult? Is Europe less religious than North America? Is Buddhism a
philosophy? How do we study religions of groups who no longer
exist? Each essay is written by a leading authority and offers
succinct, insightful answers along with suggestions for further
reading, making the book an ideal starting point for classroom use
or personal browsing.
