New Religions A Guide by Christopher Partridge is a compilation of over 200 religious entries that ranges from “Christian Science and the Jehovah’s Witnesses to Soka Gakki, Wicca, and Falun Gong.” These accounts are marked by “an unprecedented growth of new religious movements, sects, and alternative spiritualities.”
