About

'The material creation is only one quarter of the entire cosmos. The eternal spiritual sky is much larger, making up the remaining three-quarters.' Rig Veda, Chapter 10, Hymn 190

For thousands of years, religion has dominated the political, economic, and sociological history of mankind - and continues to do so today. This book looks at the fascinating stories of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Sikhism, and examines the way in which they express themselves in the modern world.

Topics include:
• The Crusades
• The Palestinian/Israeli conflict
• The Reformation in Europe
• The Holocaust
• The Shi'a and Sunni divide
• The life of Buddha
• The Hare Krishna movement
• Guru Nanak and the spiritual teaching of Sikhism

Beautifully illustrated throughout
