Yet Muslims represent approximately one third of the world's population. Improved understanding between Christians and Muslims is therefore crucial and a prerequisite for universal peace and justice. This book aims to investigate Islam's place in the world, Muslim aspirations vis-a-vis non-Muslims and the realities of how Muslims are perceived and how they perceive others. Each chapter analyses accessible texts from central thinkers and commentators, broadly split into two camps: confrontational or conciliatory. Christian-Muslim relations are set in the wider context of civilizational, geo-political and economic interaction between the Muslim world and the historically Christian West.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clinton Bennett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826487831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826487834\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continuum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/10\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.47h x 5.59w x 0.82d","brand":"Clinton Bennett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44540346204415,"sku":"9780826487834","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_341f308b-1f17-438e-9f78-b84a2cded3cc.jpg?v=1700587387","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/understanding-christian-muslim-relations-clinton-bennett-9780826487834","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
