Reviews
The contents of this volume represent the most substantive of the scholarly presentations and responses made at two consultations, in April 2005 and April 2006, convened by faculty of Fuller Theological Seminary, the Salam Institute of Peace and Justice, and the Islamic Society of North America. The co-editors provide a helpful introduction and conclusion....Instructors of peace studies courses should not ignore the classroom potential of this text in a post-9/11 era., This book will appeal to those interested in Muslim-Christian dialogue, in general, and dialogue between Muslims and Evangelical Christians, in particular. Those concerned about justice and peace-making in a post-9/11 world will also find it of interest. This volume disproves those who question the possibility of genuine interfaith dialogue or who claim that such dialogue is structured solely along Christian emphases. Its contributions demonstrate that topics such as peace-making, forgiveness, justice, and respect have significant value in both traditions. . . . this book is a valuable resource for summaries of Evangelical Christian and Muslim approaches to peace-making, forgiveness and reconciliation, and interfaith dialogue., In this important book Muslims and Evangelicals discuss the resources that each community can bring to the urgent task of peace-building. But the dialogue regularly moves to a deeper level. The discussions often take the form of personal stories of hopes and fears, of quests for forgiveness and reconciliation. This book points us to exciting new possibilities for working together in promoting the common good!, Abu-Nimer and Ausburger's Peace-building by, between, and beyond Muslims and Evangelical Christians shows us how through forgiveness and coexistence we can create a new humanity. Their dialogues surface hidden treasures of both communities. Their essays achieve a new form of knowing so that we see one another in humanizing contexts, allowing us to look together toward a common future. The co-editors and co-authors enable us to perceive harmony and complementarities amid great cultural diversity. People of varied backgrounds are turning to a new set of beliefs. While they may not share the same form, they do share the essential premise that the world and its people are one community. This sense of unity which includes diverse human societies is the central concept around which this book is organized. It is indispensible for those of us in peace studies and those who work toward a culture of peace., "Abu-Nimer and Ausburger's Peace-building by, between, and beyond Muslims and Evangelical Christians shows us how through forgiveness and coexistence we can create a new humanity.

Shipping charge was very reasonable. The shipping box was strangely almost the perfect size for the books, with only the tiniest bit of packing material needed to protect them. Thank you!
