Religions Today provides a sympathetic account of what living religions really are. Fisher traces the historical development and practices of major religious movements and explores how these evolve into contemporary belief and teaching. She considers major faiths as well as indigenous religions and new religious movements, focusing on how living religions affect contemporary society. Case studies and interviews with living people ensure that this concise guide is both readable and stimulating.
Mary Pat Fisher lives and writes in India. She is author of Religion in the Twenty-First Century (Routledge/Prentice-Hall, 1999) and co-author, with Lee Bailey, of An Anthology of Living Religions (Prentice-Hall, 2000).
