Atlases that represent the first 1500 years of Christianity can, for the most part, safely rely on ethnic and national boundaries to provide the basic context for the maps and drawings that illustrate change. Yet as one approaches the modern period, when the credal preferences of rulers and governments become decreasingly determinative, the geographical portrayal of religion becomes more problematic. In our era this becomes more pronounced. How does one graphically portray Lutheran Sweden or Catholic Spain when only 3.6 per cent and 15 per cent respectively are actually practising. Which is the best way to represent the life of Christians in China, Indonesia or the Sudan? Franklin Littell's method is to highlight those times and places of crisis and decision - both internal and external - in which the shape and direction of Christianity was determined. Particular attention is paid to the interaction of Christians and Jews and to the encounter of Christianity and Islam. Three main areas are emphasized: theology and dogma, ethical and moral life and the expansion of Christianity to a world religion.
