Description: "The three Abrahamic traditions have a long history of clashes, often with disastrous results. This book offers an alternative to those who see only a future like the past: of increasing friction and violence. Three of the most respected figures representing Catholic Christianity, Judaism, and Islam - Archbishop Michael Fitzgerald, Professor Reuven Firestone, and Professor Mahmoud Ayoub - show that collaboration can work, that it is possible to foster mutual understanding and appreciation of the different traditions in practical ways."--Jacket.
