Whether a student of Religious Studies or simply interested in the phenomenon of Religion across time and cultures, one becomes quickly aware of the broad sweep of this subject. Morreall and Sonn have skillfully knit together a volume that is deep and detailed enough for use in the classroom at any level, as well as accessible and engaging for the curious reader looking for a well researched volume able to teach, inform and broaden one’s understanding of a complex and fascinating subject. I would highly recommend this clear and carefully structured overview of religion to the teacher or professor needing a well designed text, or as an affordable and scholarly resource for students exploring the vast subject of religion. For the curious reader looking for insight and a deeper understanding of the subject, I would offer the same encouragement.
