A Little History of Religion by Richard Holloway

4.0

A good, comprehensive, and, indeed, short look at all the world's main religions: where they came from, what are their main ideas, what they have to attract new followers, and what's questionable about them. The style is simple and accessible. This is not an anti-religious study, rather a kind of look from the outside, from the agnostic's point of view, I guess. This book doesn't go deep, but it doesn't promise to. A good starting point for further reading.
