This is the perfect book to have beside your bed. Open and read the strange world we live in. I learned so much from this book.. even comical at times. I think it is a orthodox Christan perspective so it is not completely objective... but still great.

Besides the fact that this book was written from and evangelical perspective its also filled with misinformation. Under the section for the Church of jesus christ of latter-day saints there is a pricture that the author claims is Joseph Smith when clearly its is a picture of Brigham Young.

Great reference book to have on cults, sects etc. This book gives you some basic understanding of their beliefs, which could be used as helpful tool in preparing & equipping you to pray & witness to those trapped in such the Cults.
