Sikhism

Rate this book
At the heart of Sikhism are the ten Gurus, who transferred authority from individual leaders to the scriptures and the community itself. "Sikhism" explores how their distinctive beliefs emerged from the Hindu background of the times, how a number of separate sects split off, and how far the ideas of sexual equality have been observed in practice.

I really did a brief over-read only. It is a very factual book--the author is careful to explain the differences between what is "tradition" and what can be historically verified. it is a good over view of a religion that I didn't know much about .
