About this title

Synopsis

Reviewing a time-span from the first Muslim-Christian encounters to the Salman Rushdie affair, this study traces the history of the two religions in question and attempts to describe how the exponents of each religion perceive the other.

Review

‘A very impressive piece of scholarship on a topic that is both very complex and difficult to handle. The author displays a deep and detailed knowledge of the two world religions in question and of their historical interaction, expresses his ideas clearly, simply and interestingly, and for that reason the book will be widely not read not only by professionals but also by lay people’ – Peter B. Clarke, King’s College, London

The book is the summation of a life-time’s study of Islam and its relationship with Christianity. Professor Watt remains, whether one agreed with him or not, one of the Western world’s greatest authorities on the subject: one of the last Orientalist giants’ – Professor Akbar Ahmed, Iqbal Visiting Fellow, University of Cambridge
