Revered Wisdom - The New Series from Sterling Publishing

Capricorn Link and Sterling Publishing are proud to present a new series of books called Revered Wisdom.

The first four books offer an introduction to different religions and groups, covering Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism and Freemasonry.

Revered Wisdom: Christianity

RRP: $14.99, Paperback, 336 pages, ISBN: 9781402770418

Offers an abridged edition of William Paley's seminal work A View of the Evidence of Christianity. A classic in the world of theological debate, the book argues, in lucid prose, the genuine nature of the intellectual credentials of Christianity. Although today William Paley is a controversial figure, as many of his assertions laid the foundation for the Intelligent Design movement, there is no doubt of the influence and importance of his work.

Revered Wisdom: Buddhism

RRP: $14.99, Paperback, 336 pages, ISBN: 9781402770432

This is the perfect introduction to Buddhism, an expertly abridged edition of Sir Charles Eliot's three-volume work Hinduism and Buddhism: An Historical Sketch. The Buddha teaches that eternal happiness can be obtained by anyone at any time. Sir Eliot begins with the life of Buddha, then explains the important teachings within the Buddhist cannon and ends with meditation techniques for embarking on a path to spiritual discovery and reaching nirvana.

Revered Wisdom: Judaism

RRP: $14.99, Paperback, 336 pages, ISBN: 9781402770425

Often called the religion of reason, Judaism is abundant with beautiful traditions, ancient customs and scholarly Biblical interpretation. Revered Wisdom: Judaism is the perfect introduction to the period that in many ways was the most complex and confusing in Israel's history. The centuries following the Fall of Jerusalem to the death of Herod the Great constitute a reflective and retrospective age, whose writings and teachings reveal the soul of the Jewish faith.

Revered Wisdom: Freemasonry

RRP: $14.99, Paperback, 336 pages, ISBN: 9781402770401

Freemasonry is the world's oldest and largest fraternity and it remains shrouded in mystery, even though much has been written on its complex symbols and principles over the past three hundred years. This Revered Wisdom volume offers an abridged edition of Albert G. Mackey's classic work The Symbolism of Freemasonry. In it, Mackey, a Mason himself, explains the fascinating philosophy and science behind the legends and symbols of this secretive sect.
