Complete Comprehensive Overview July 6, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I am currently training to be a secondary school teacher and have found this book invauable in covering the major topics neccesary to meet the stated criteria.
Its content is straightforward, understandable and flows logically from one chapter to another providing a sound basis of the Sikh religion, belief structure, practices and approaches to modern day situations.

A First Class Introduction December 29, 2000
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This is an excellent introduction into the world and religion of Sikhism. Cole contextualises the daily practices and the Sikh philosophy in a clear and non-trivial way (triviality so often being a feature of such introductions). At the same time he directly addresses the historical roots and the issues, social and political, faced by Sikhs. This really is a worth-while book.

I converted to Sikhism some two years back and this book helped me to grow in my new faith. Mr. Cole is an excellent writer and he has a real feel for his subject. He has shared the good and bad times of life with a number of Sikhs and this comes through in his writng. A most excellent work and I recommend to anyone with an interest in Sikhism.

This is beyond doubt the worst written book I have ever read. An eleven year old essayist could be expected to have a more coherent thought pattern.
