The original Penguin Handbook of Living Religions, published in
1984, quickly established itself as a standard introduction to the
major religions in the modern world for students, professionals in
various fields and general readers. Written by a team of leading
international scholars in a clear and readable style, each chapter
provides a general introduction to the sources and history of the
religion, then its teachings, practices, popular traditions and at
twentieth-century developments. This New Handbook of Living
Religions not only updates existing chapters to reflect events in
the 1990s and to account for recent scholarship, but also includes
new material on modern China, gender issues and spirituality. In
addition there is a whole new section looking at modern diaspora
religions in the West with four new chapters on South Asian
religions in the USA, Canada, Britain and the Pacific area. This
section on the religions of minority communities concludes with a
further new chapter looking at these religious migrations in a
comparative international perspective.
