@joshuapsteele can’t say I’ve seen it all in one place but there are some really good overview courses in The Great Courses (e.g. Great Minds of the Eastern Intellectual Tradition).

In my experience, LDS folks often have a lot good intel, because of their methods of evangelism and the whole prepare-to-run-a-planet-and-be-a-god thing.

@joshuapsteele also, I know many would hate this answer, but Wikipedia has really great portals.

@toddgrotenhuis LOL to your LDS point. And I’m not above Wikipedia! But I’m looking for a good textbook-like resource, if possible. I’ve done a fair bit of comparative religious study, but never in the context of a lengthy overview text.
