Three hundred sixty-six (providing for Leap Year) daily readings of insight and inspiration are offered in this book. They consist of prose and poetry in passages seldom of a page's length, and are drawn from Taoism, Islam, Confucianism, Buddhism, Judaism, African Religion (sic), and Christianity. The author disclaims any attempt to provide a synthesis of wisdom from the literature of world religions. No particular pattern or sequence seems to govern the choice of order of the selections. Useful for readers who wish a daily inspirational diminutive for reflection during the day.
