Hi Out, yes The World's Religions is a very good book, apparently it is widely used as an undergraduate text in comparative religion courses.
Not to detract from his credibility or anything, but I picked up a recent book of his on entheogenic plants: Cleansing the Doors of Perception. If it wasn't from him I don't think I would have looked into it. (besides it was a remainder copy for $5) Anyhow, if you're able to find TWR at the library let me know how you like it.
