What to read after Baha'i Faith?

This volume explores the history, basic beliefs, and practices of the Baha'i Faith. The youngest of the world's independent religions, the Baha'i Faith is also one of the fastest growing. Since 1950, when there were about 200,000 Baha'is worldwide, adherence to the faith has increased thirtyfold to more than 6 million followers today, who live in 235 countries and territories throughout the world. Founded in Iran in 1863 by Mirza Husayn Ali, who is known to his followers as Baha'u'llah, the Baha'i Faith espouses the unity of all religions and is committed to the abolition of racial class, and religious prejudices. The Baha'is emphasis on education and social equality has made the religion attractive in under-developed areas, and the largest Baha'i communities today are in South Asia, Africa, and Latin America. However with its concerns about social ethics, race relationships, feminist issues, economics, global government, and the environment, the faith has also attracted a following among people living and working in the world's most developed nations who are struggling with these issues.
