Zoroastrianism by John W. Waterhouse

John W. Waterhouse surveys Zoroaster, the religion’s scriptures, and its teachings about God and humanity. He places particular emphasis on encounters between Zoroastrianism and Judaism and the possible transmission of ideas into Christianity.

This is an exploration of religious doctrine and influence through the author’s historical argument, rather than a contemporary practice manual. Readers interested in comparative religion can consider his account of developments and contacts among these traditions. ISBN: 9781585092819.
