The first edition expanded so extensively on its predecessors, the World Christian Handbook series, that it is difficult to trace the connection. The fruit of vast global research, the heart of the first edition is its Survey section, with articles and statistical tables on every country in the world. Books in the Global Evangelization Movement: AD 2000 series are the starting place for many new sections in the second edition. It will be three times the size of the first edition and will explore, describe, and enumerate many essential topics in religion and Christianity in all its vast global diversity.
