Reseña del editor

This book brings together 34 provocative maps and graphics to portray the current impact of the major religions and their divisions, the survival of traditional beliefs, the presence of atheism and agnosticism and the great number of new religious movements. The atlas shows, country by country, how the religions spread their influence through means such as broadcasting and missionary work, how they relate to governments, laws, world hunger, and the role they play in wars. It ends by mapping the heartlands of the religions and the sacred places of the world. For background there is also a table on the fundamental beliefs of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism and Taoism.
