Note:"Small though it may be, Unitarian Universalism has had a big impact not only on its members, but also on the world around it. Rejecting the constraints of other Christian denominations, it has sought tolerance for itself and just as readily granted tolerance to others. Evolving in its principles and practices over a relatively short lifetime, Unitarian Universalism shows every sign of developing further, reaching beyond Christianity to embrace other, more diverse religions. The denomination has also regularly been at the forefront of social causes, including abolition, temperance, women's suffrage, pacifism, educational reform, and environmentalism. The Historical Dictionary of Unitarian Universalism covers many subjects, both historical and contemporary. There are numerous entries on the places the church was present, significant leaders, and causes and issues. It thereby provides a comprehensive understanding of the multiple facets of the Unitarian Universalist faith." --Back cover.
