With 2,900 concise, informative entries from Aaron (Moses' elder
brother) to Zurvan (a Zoroastrian God of Time), the Wordsworth
dictionary of beliefs and religions provides answers to questions on all
aspects of the world's major faiths and ideologies, both historical and
current. Unrivalled in its scope and detail, the dictionary contains a
comprehensive subject index which groups the entries for each religion
of belief, is fully cross-referenced, and includes a valuable calendar
of festivals. From the days of Palaeolithic cave art to the musings of
"New Age" thinkers people have striven to understand the purpose behind
life, and this dictionary will guide the labyrinth of human beliefs
since the dawn of recorded thought.
