This book clearly explains how the many divergent religious traditions are indeed referring to the same ultimate reality. If there is an infinite being, then it can be described in infinite ways. If there is an infinite being, then there is nowhere else for another infinite being to exist. This book is an extremely cogent argument for pluralism.

if you are lloking for an introduction to world religions, look further; His book "religions of Man" is the "intro" the atlanta review would want. this is far more involved and is even better for you if you have a general idea of the religions involved. Fabulous, have purchased it for friends. Pay attention to the authors who are footnoted so extensively (Guenon, Coomaraswamy, schuon, Burckhardt).

The second semester of my senior year @ Villanova University; I was blessed to have Professor Emeritus Huston Smith for an honor's class: Philosophy and Religion. This book was one of the texts that we read and discussed. It helped me put my Catholic upbringing in perspective and further understand the age old calling of deep unto deep. As above so below. Microcosm mirrors Macrocosm. Ten years later I am learning these same truths over and over again on a daily basis. Thank you Huston Smith.

This is not a sequel to Huston Smith's popular "The World's Religions", as erroneously stated by Amazon in their editorial review. Read more

Great read, but not a follow up to World's Religions!
The World's Religions was the single greatest caption of the different faiths I've ever encountered. Read more
