The Basics of World Religion is uniquely designed to introduce
students to fundamental concepts in world religion. The text
provides the critical information students need to grasp the basics
of religion and build upon that knowledge in more advanced courses.
The text begins with an introduction to religion as a concept,
practice, and academic discipline, and outlines the four key types
of religion and major world religions. The proceeding chapter
addresses various aspects and types of ancient and indigenous
religions including shamanism, divination and astrology, creation
stories, and more. Dedicated chapters explore branches, belief
systems, common myths, and holidays of Islam, Judaism,
Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Daoism, Confucianism,
Shinto and Korean religion, and Sikhism. The book concludes with a
chapter that outlines new and emerging religions. Throughout,
students are exposed to illustrations and photos of religious
rituals, figures, and houses of worship in the United States to
bring the content to life. Lively, humorous, and engaging in its
presentation of material, The Basics of World Religion is an ideal
resource for introductory undergraduate courses in religion.
