In the Beginning: A Fresh Look at the Case for… by Winfried Corduan
Detailed analysis of historical evolution of anthropological research on origins of religion
I read the first edition several times in order to use it for a World Religions class I teach, but that was many years ago. This reading was my first time through the second edition. I still think its a fine text for a Christian introductory course. I suppose any reader, and especially an instructor, would wish for a little more of this or little less of that, but that doesn't really seem like fair criticism.
A readable, coherent survey of world faiths. Very organized. Great for reading, or just looking something up.
