Title: Learn the basics quickly
Review: If you're researching the subject to write a 5-page essay for a college or high school course, this book gets about as in-depth as you need. A very slick presentation and fast-paced writing style presents you with most of the material you need in one works cited entry, saving you from having to look at or cite encyclopedias for the same basic history lesson. Did you know the bible was used to justify slavery? Or the Inquisition? You did? Most of the historical information in the book will be common knowledge to anyone who has studied religions or history in any depth. The book explores each area not *much* more deeply than your average encyclopedia entry.
