Review # 1 was written on 2011-08-04 00:00:00 Glynis Sakowicz only read the intro, epilogue and chapters on Islam and Confucianism. A lovely read. Useful knowledge for understanding the precursors of the Enlightentment

Review # 2 was written on 2015-01-13 00:00:00 David West Quite an enlightening read about Sikhism. Miss Singh goes into detail not only about the history of the religion but also spends a chapter discussing the metaphysics, ethics and esthetics in depth, as well as another chapter looking at the various practices and rituals of the religion. She then turns her gaze to how it can be, and how it has been, interpreted in light of feminism, and how Sikh's can embrace this again. She then spends a detailed chapter of Sikh art, something quite interesting given the aniconic status of the religion. Finally, she turns to discuss the Sikh diaspora and how the history of it and how Sikh's worldwide are adapting to their new locations outside the Punjab. Overall this is a very enlightening read, and a very good introduction to all aspects of the religion. Miss Singh doesn't gloss over the negatives of it, often talking about oppression within the religion and how daughters are often treated horribly, but she does offer solutions to these problems harkening back to the words of the Gurus. Overall, an amazing introduction to the religion.
