The anthology edited by Clifton Fadiman titled The World Treasury of Modern Religious Thought is another book I found through the Book of the Month Club (BOMC). I'm glad I did too. This is the best one-volume anthology of world religions I have found. The essays are often written by prominent religious thinkers like Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, Martin Buber, and others. It also has excellent essays by religious scholars who are less known by the general public, but are prominent scholars of particular religious traditions. Atheism is also well-represented in this volume too, adding an important voice to the dialogue underway in this collection.
