Christians and Muslims - From Double Standards to Mutual Understanding (Paperback)

One of the most persistent problems in Christian-Muslim relations over the centuries has been the tendency of each group to judge the other by a set of standards and criteria quite different from the standards and criteria used in assessing itself. Hugh Goddard argues that in the 20th century such a procedure is no longer admissible. He goes on to point out some of the useful insight which may be gained - by the members of both communities in their understanding both of their own faith and of that of the other - by an attempt to apply the same criteria to both traditions. Goddard discusses parallels, similarities and divergences with clarity and insight. The question of "fundamentalism" is given particularly detailed analytical treatment. This book sets new standards in the understanding of both religions and their understanding of each other.
