Multiculturalism is the overriding spirit in a book that honors some of the world's most popular and beloved religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, and select tribal religions. Huston Smith, long-celebrated scholar of religion, shares his enthusiasm for how people around the world celebrate and adore their gods. In an all-embracing and non-judgmental style, Smith covers the religions' essentials without getting bogged down in lengthy comparisons of how a particular sect relates to another.
