About this title

Synopsis

Recent Reference Books in Religion summarizes and evaluates more than three hundred contemporary reference works in religion that have been published in English, French and German. Here researchers and students of religion will find an engaging and even-handed guide to the research tools they need. Readers will find a helpful typology of reference works introduced and gain a renewed appreciation of their contribution to learning. Outstanding articles and contributors are highlighted, strengths and weaknesses are carefully noted and weighed, and readers are directed to volumes whose strengths complement the weaknesses of others. Each entry includes full bibliographic details, and cross-referencing is used where appropriate.
