"Three faiths--Jewish, Christian, and Muslim--became the
dominant religions of western civilization in the course of the
Middle Ages. Within each, there is and was great cultural and
ethnic diversity. The complex relationships today among Jews,
Christians, and Muslims in the Mediterranean, the tensions and
attempts at resolution of conflicts among these groups, have their
roots in the Middle Ages."
