Complete Comprehensive Overview - By: , 06 Jul 2005 
I am currently training to be a secondary school teacher & have found this book invauablein covering the major topics neccesary to meet the stated criteria.
Its content is straightforward, understandable & flows logically from one chapter to another providing a sound basis of the Sikh religion, belief structure, practices & approaches to modern day situations.

A First Class Introduction - By: , 29 Dec 2000 
This is an excellent introduction into the world & religion of Sikhism. Cole contextualises the daily practices & the Sikh philosophyin a clear & non-trivial way (triviality so often being a feature of such introductions). At the same time he directly addresses the historical roots & the issues, social & political, faced by Sikhs. This really is a worth-while book.
Clear and concise with a real feel of the subject - By: wild_wombat@yahoo.com, 17 Aug 2000 I converted to Sikhism some two years back & this book helped me to growin my new faith. Mr. Cole is an excellent writer & he has a real feel for his subject. He has shared the good & bad times of life with a number of Sikhs & this comes throughin his writng. A most excellent work & I recommend to anyone with an interestin Sikhism.
Do not waste your money on this book - By: , 04 Feb 1999 
This is beyond doubt the worst written book I have ever read. An eleven year old essayist could be expected to have a more coherent thought pattern.
