One God, Three Faiths

At a time when Islam is at the forefront of public attention, it is useful to have basic information about it and how it relates to the other two great monotheistic religions, Judaism and Christianity. Taking as its starting point the Quran, the sacred text of Islam, this selects some of its fundamental themes and asks what the other two religions have to say on them. ""An excellent idea and very timely as conflicts in Europe and the Middle East bring our prejudices and ignorance to the surface.""--Books Ireland. ""An especially fine book ... it would be great to use in inter-faith dialogue groups.""--David B. Burrell, Hesburgh Professor of Philosophy and Theology, University of Notre Dame
