This is what I am reading in this inspiring and exciting work. As Dr. Brewer puts it succinctly in his preface: the main goal is 'to offer an approach to interreligious dialogue predicated on humility and hospitality that also strives for honest discussion of difference.' I couldn't agree more with this noble aim! --Veli-Matti Karkkainen, Professor of Systematic Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary David Brewer has done the fields of philosophy of religion and philosophical theology a great service by highlighting the epistemological role of humility and hospitality in the quest to understand God. What emerges from the discussion is the realization that convictional differences are the necessary conditions for discovery and honest interrogation of claims to truth. Brewer uses the resources of MacIntyre's conception of tradition-constituted rationality to negotiate the contested terrain of rival religious traditions of enquiry in such a way that what might initially be perceived as an enemy and a threat can now be seen as a friend and fellow traveler on the road to understand what remains the greatest mystery that we humans face: God. --Christian Early, Associate Director, Ethical Reasoning in Action, James Madison University
