Ghazali (1058-1111) is the most famous theologian-mystic in Islam and the equivalent of Thomas Aquinas in Christianity. His contribution to the formation and development of Islamic theology and mysticism is incalculable. Professor Kojiro Nakamura was head of the Islamic Studies Department, University of Tokyo, Japan.
...the series as a whole, [is] a significant contribution to our understanding of this key figure in Islamic intellectual thought.--Oliver Leaman "BRISMES Bulletin "
