This work is a classic model of research in the history of religion. Religious ideas are represented here not only in chronological order, but also united by a single understanding of the diversity of the religious life of all cultures and continents. Eliade masterly owns the methods of comparative anthropology and demonstrates general trends in the development of religious ideas. "For the historian of religions, every manifestation of the sacred is significant: every ritual, every myth, every belief and every image of the deity reflect the experience of the sacred and therefore carry the concepts of being, meaning, truth.

The work also includes additional chapters on religions of ancient Eurasia, Tibet, for magic, alchemy and hermetic tradition
