Compact Atlas of Global Christianity cover

Building on the success of Todd M. Johnson and Kenneth R. Ross’s highly acclaimed Atlas of Global Christianity, this volume is the tenth in a series of reference works that takes the analysis of worldwide Christianity to a deeper level of detail. This volume focuses on Global Christianity, offering reliable demographic information, thematic maps, innovative graphs and original interpretative essays by indigenous scholars and practitioners. It maps patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyses key themes and examines current trends. As a comprehensive account of the presence of Christianity in every part of the world, this volume will become a standard work of reference in its field.

The Compact Atlas of Global Christianity captures in one volume a wealth of useful demographic data on the world Christian movement today. It will prove an invaluable resource for researchers and general readers alike, and will disabuse media commentators of the myth that Christianity is a dying religion of the Western world. -- Brian Stanley, University of Edinburgh
By combining comprehensive demographic analysis of global Christianity with interpretative essays replete with helpful illustrations and graphs, this volume stakes a serious claim to being one of the most vital compilations available to readers in the church and academy. At a minimum, its rich array of content and coverage promises a valuable contribution to the existing literature, and it is likely to be a major and widely used resource. -- Jehu J. Hanciles, Emory University
