Purchase options and add-ons

From as far back in time as history records, human beings have sought the truth-some order or entity that unifies all existence. Sometimes these have been codified in certain writings approved as scriptural, other less centralised traditions have collections of sayings and stories, still others have passed on their wisdom orally. This collection contains all three types of tradition, providing a unique overall view of the collective spiritual wisdom of humanity. Despite the variety of form and style, the common insights shine brilliantly through, and the introductions to each tradition provide a succinct summary of how we can relate this wisdom to our own lives today. The volume contains twelve chapters, each with thirty one readings, so it can be read with ease through the year as a means of education, reference or inspiration. An introduction to each tradition covers origins, teachings, expressions and themes that are relevant tor us today, written in a readable style suitable for most age groups.

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2014
This book is everything I expected and more. Very interesting to get a different view and yet see how much there is in common within different religions.
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2004
A World Religions Bible is a nice anthology of scripture and other religious literature from around the world. It is divided into 12 monthly chapters each with 31 single-page readings, so it could easily be used as a daily devotional.
Each chapter is devoted to a different religious tradition: Hinduism, Buddhism, Zen, Taoism, Native American Religion, Traditional African Religion, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Early Christianity, Christian Mysticism, Islam, and Sufism & Sikhism. The chapters each begin with three pages summarizing the origins, teachings, and distinctive features of the faith and a fourth page suggesting how to apply its insights to your daily life.
This collection is set apart from other world religions anthologies by the beauty of its design. The book is printed on glossy, full-color stock. Each monthly chapter has a distinct border design. The only flaw is that the print is rather small and would be difficult for someone with poor eyesight to read. Still, the book would make a handsome gift for anyone interested in world religions.
While the book is beautiful and contains a nice variety of readings, it is not a very useful tool for scholars. Most of the pieces are abridged and occasionally paraphrased from the original, but these adaptations are not specifically noted. Sources are indicated by author and book, but more specific information like chapter and verse are omitted.
However, if inspiration is your goal, A World Religions Bible is a fine collection of inspiring words attractively presented.

5.0 out of 5 stars A bible for a desert island
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 28, 2016
I love this book. As a Unitarian and a Quaker, I believe that there is light to be found in all of the world's religions and this book has a wonderful set of perspectives. I've used it as part of my devotional reading over the past year (there's a page a day) and really have enjoyed the experience. It would be my first choice as a desert island book.
