Review
"Christian-Buddhist dialogue is now old hat. But what about Christian-Taoist dialogue? Or Christian-Confucianist dialogue? Such is the uncharted interfaith territory explored in this book. The 18 essays here push the envelope of interfaith spirituality in fresh ways."—Publisher's Weekly
"enlightening and helpful"
"an excellent overview"
"Each paper is too rich to skip."
"Fascinating"
—Review for Religious, vol. 62.1, 2003
"Ably and excellently edited...it is a deeply informative and crisply imaginative series of essays... From every one of them I learned, by comparison, analogy, or contrast, the place and fullness of my own Christian faith within a world cosmology of beliefs." -Dr. Dennis Patrick Slattery, Dialogue and Alliance
