The Baha'i faith has some five million adherents around the world.
It preaches the oneness of God, the unity of all faiths, universal
education and the harmony of all people, but has no priesthood and
few formal rituals. In this book Peter Smith traces the development
of the Baha'i faith from its roots in the Babi movement of
mid-nineteenth century Iran to its contemporary emergence as an
expanding worldwide religion. * Explores the textual sources for
Baha'i belief and practice, theology and anthropology and
understanding of other religions. * Covers the concept of the
spiritual path, Baha'i law and administration and aspects of
community life. * Examines the Baha'i's social teachings and
activities in the wider world. This introduction will be of
particular interest to students of new religious movements, Middle
East religions, and comparative religion and for those studying
short courses on the Baha'i faith.
