This "Guide..." is essentially what its title suggests...a brief or abbreviated summation of the major religions of the world, including some Christian insights and responses to them.
It is quite excellent for a student wanting to learn more about particular religions without getting lost in the library stacks, or the various viewpoints, or inundated with all the material written about each major religion.
"... a complete, easy-to-use handbook of the origins, basic beliefs, and evangelistic challenges and opportunities of the world's major religions in clear, easy-to-use chapters and charts," says the introdiction to the book online at: http://www.isionline.org/volunteeropps/books.htm
The book can be ordered for $11.50 (plus postage) online at this above website, or from:
