Reviews

The Building Bridges series of Christian-Muslim dialogues have become a unique and indispensable repository of resources to dialogue as theological exchange. The latest publication around the question of Power is another invaluable resource for anyone looking for serious interactions between Christians and Muslims on one of the most pressing issues within and across the two faiths. What seems to distinguish the Building Bridges contributions to Christian-Muslim scholarship is the way in which they consistently model a high quality of theological reflection with a confident ownership of the respective traditions in dialogue. -- Richard Sudworth, Secretary for Inter Religious Affairs to the Archbishop of Canterbury and National Inter Religiois Affairs Adviser, Church of England
