NCLA Review - This reference book contains information about Roman Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, and Buddhist religions. Each section has beliefs, places of worship, festivals and holy days, rituals and ceremonies, and some useful words and phrases. A bibliography for further reading, a list of helpful web sites, and an index are at the end. This is general information in a compact, easy-to-use form. However, this information could be obtained online. It would be most useful in a library which does not have books on individual religions and/or Internet access for its patrons.
