The World's Religions, by Huston Smith, has been a standard introduction to its eponymous subject since its first publication in 1958. Smith writes humbly, forswearing judgment on the validity of world religions. His introduction asks, "How does it all sound from above? Like bedlam, or do the strains blend in strange, ethereal harmony? ... We cannot know. All we can do is try to listen carefully and with full attention to each voice in turn as it addresses the divine. Such listening defines the purpose of this book." His criteria for inclusion and analysis of religions in this book are "relevance to the modern mind" and "universality," and his interest in each religion is more concerned with its principles than its context. Therefore, he avoids cataloging the horrors and crimes of which religions have been accused, and he attempts to show each "at their best." Yet The World's Religions is no pollyannaish romp: "It is about religion alive," Huston writes. "It calls the soul to the highest adventure it can undertake, a proposed journey across the jungles, peaks, and deserts of the human spirit. The call is to confront reality." And by translating the voices of Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Confucianism, Christianity, and Judaism, among others, Smith has amplified the divine call for generations of readers. --Michael Joseph Gross

讀後感
最近突然想回头读宗教学，而自己又没有时间读大部头。找了一大圈突然发现最适合我的书居然就在我的书柜里面躺着……这已经不是第一次了……究竟应该说是果然多收集一些书比较好，还是应该说收集得太多以至于自己都记不得…… 相比我之前介绍的专业教科书，这本书要容易得多，...
評分使心灵有所皈依，引领孤寂的灵魂获取生命之解脱。虽然每个教派的教义主张略有差异，但宗教的本质没有变。 不止一次地翻阅休斯顿•史密斯的≪人的宗教≫一书。每一次心灵都会被其中的智慧照亮。这是一本难得的好书，甚至我觉得是凡对信仰和精神生活有要求的有知之士必读...

評分《人民的名义》这部电视剧大火之后，我用最快的速度把《人民的名义》这部书看完了，中间夹杂着看过一些电视剧的片段，台词和表演却是如书里面的相似度很高，演员们付出了切实的努力。这一步电视剧的火，很大程度上和全体中国大陆人民的心理诉求产生了极佳的共鸣，每个人都可以...
評分翻译很流畅，几大重要宗教都涵盖了，提纲挈领。 另一个视角看宗教，印度教、基督、佛、伊斯兰、儒、道，让人对宗教感知更多些。 作者以睿智，清晰的笔触充分的展现了每一种信仰的精神内涵。其实，宗教在很多时候会给人一种力量，内心真正的强大却需要自己去成长。
用戶評價
重要的不是對某一宗教理解上的客觀與全麵，重要的是作者去觀察的視角，重要的是其反復斟酌終於下筆直至定稿時候嘴角的所有微笑，重要的是那顆想要去理解的心，想要去傾聽的耳朵，最重要的是這一切背後流露齣的愛。而這正正是宗教的本質，這與此書是否通俗是否為入門讀物的爭論毫無關聯。且不說各個宗教的敘述，單單是前言與結尾中便有很多值得抄錄的段落。行文考究，取捨有度，又可作救急的工具書，這樣的書是可以打五星的！另作者采訪剋裏希那穆提的視頻很是有趣，諸君有緣可找來一探究竟。
评分這個，超級通俗！！！推薦

评分religion at its best
评分說不上是巨著，但作為入門書或教科書卻十分不錯，本來無打算要讀它，全因教學之故，所謂「陪太子讀書」，隻好速速看完它。不喜歡他口水多多，但對故事的編排和重點的鋪陳都是有水準的，而者對各個宗教的重點都掌握得很好，並十分客觀持平
