Understanding World Religions in 15 Minutes a Day by Garry R. Morgan ~ Review

Understanding World Religions in 15 Minutes a Day: Learn the Basics Of: Islam Buddhism Hinduism Mormonism Christianity and Many More
My Review: A concise history and explanation of major, minor, and sub-branches of religions.

Mr. Garry R. Morgan presents and tells the difference between 40 different religions in concise chapters.

Mr. Morgan did a terrific job of taking information that is totally overwhelming and cutting it down into chapters that take around 15 mintues to read. And presenting the beliefs and history of each religion and standing and comparing them with one another. I can't imagine how hard it must have been to take all that information and cut it down in short chapters.

While I thought that the writing concisely was done well, I wasn't particularly totally engaged by the book either. I found my mind wandering a bit, though I admit I was a bit stressed when I read the book.

Overall, this wasn't my favorite book on the topic, but it was helpful. I liked how there were religions in there that I never really thought about or knew about before. And I did learn some great stuff. So I would recommend this book to people who are looking for a concise overview of a variety of religions.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thanks.
