Pathways for Inter-Religious Dialogue in the Twenty-First Century [Hardcover]

Without question, inter-religious relations are crucial in the contemporary age. While most dialogue works on past and contemporary matters, this volume takes on the relations among the Abrahamic religions and looks forward, toward the possibility of real and lasting dialogue. The book centers upon inter-faith issues. It identifies problems that stand in the way of fostering healthy dialogues both within particular religious traditions and between faiths. The volume's contributors strive for a realization of already existing common ground between religions. They engagingly explore how inter-religious dialogue can be re-energized for a new century.

'This is a book on inter-religious relations with a difference: it is substantial, thoughtful, and innovative. An excellent set of essays which are well worth reading.' - Ian S. Markham, Dean and President of Virginia Theological Seminary and Professor of Theology and Ethics, USA
