A Guide To Our Wisdom Traditions

BY HUSTON SMITH

Brief Description:
"In lucid and captivating prose, Smith, the dean of world religionists, conducts readers on a whirlwind tour of the beliefs, practices and experiences of the world's religious traditions. Smith explores the major features of these religions by combining his own worlds with passages from the sacred texts of each. .The words and images of this book continually remind us that the world's faiths are not stagnant pools of decaying values but dynamic and vibrant waters from which their practitioners daily drink. .If one buys only one of the number of recent introductions to world religions, this should be it."- Publishers Weekly

HarperSanFrancisco 1995 256 PP. Paper
