Description: "At a time when many are troubled by the issues involving religious pluralism, this book offers a new platform for inter-religious theory. Joseph O'Leary develops an interpretation of historical pluralism - derived from Jacques Derrida in the West and the Buddhist Nagarjuna in the East - that finds order in this chaos. He shows how biblical monotheism and Christological doctrine acquire a new validation from their interplay with the different visions of salvation and reality found in other religious traditions."--BOOK JACKET.
