Book Review:
This second volume of Mircea Eliade's monumental work covers a vast range of traditions, from Gautama Buddha to the triumph of Christianity. Exploring the religions of ancient China, Brahmanism, Roman religion, and the birth of Christianity, it is a magisterial history of religious ideas. No one has done so much to inform the West about Eastern religions. The critical bibliographies alone are worth the price. An essential resource for generations to come, this is a labor of love and scholarship.
