Towards a Jewish-Christian-Muslim Theology

Towards a Jewish-Christian-Muslim Theology delineates the ways that Christianity, Islam, and the Jewish tradition have moved towards each another over the centuries and points to new pathways for contemporary theological work.

• Explores the development of the three Abrahamic traditions, brilliantly showing the way in which they have struggled with similar issues over the centuries
• Shows how the approach of each tradition can be used comparatively by the other traditions to illuminate and develop their own thinking
• Written by a renowned writer in philosophical theology, widely acclaimed for his comparative thinking on Jewish and Islamic theology
• A very timely book which moves forward the discussion at a period of intense inter-religious dialogue
