World Religions in Practice: A Comparative Introduction by Paul Gwynne explores how six major religions are lived and expressed through their customs, rituals, and everyday practices. This new edition delves into the 'lived experience' of these faiths, examining birth, death, ethics, and worship across all six religions at each stage. A comparative study that broadens students' understanding, this book offers an impartial discussion of the similarities and differences between each religion. With a focus on key themes, it provides a practical approach to understanding world religions. Student-friendly features are included to enhance engagement with the subject matter and extend understanding. By exploring the customs, rituals, and everyday practices of six major religions - including Daoism - this book offers a unique perspective on how these faiths shape human experience.
