Inhaltsangabe

Building on the success of Todd M. Johnson and Kenneth R. Ross’s highly acclaimed Atlas of Global Christianity, this volume is the tenth in a series of reference works that takes the analysis of worldwide Christianity to a deeper level of detail.

This volume focuses on Global Christianity, offering reliable demographic information, thematic maps, innovative graphs and original interpretative essays by indigenous scholars and practitioners. It maps patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyses key themes and examines current trends. As a comprehensive account of the presence of Christianity in every part of the world, this volume will become a standard work of reference in its field.
