Talking to the Other Résumé

Talking to the Other: Jewish Interfaith Dialogue with Christians and Muslims Jonathan Magonet

Suicide killings - both in America and Israel - have focused world attention on international terrorism. The involvement of people claiming that their Islamic faith justified murderous suicide action has intensified the demonization of Islam in the West, and in turn highlighted the need to understand and relate to Muslims in all their diversity. Rabbi Jonathan Magonet has long been engaged in interfaith dialogue, and in this book he explores the issues that arise with such an encounter and challenges the Jewish community to broaden its commitment to interfaith dialogue in a complex and rapidly changing world.

Talking to the Other Avis

Church Times: 'This is a book for seasoned practitioners as well as beginners: the author has done us a great service.' The Tablet '...Essential reading for anyone planning an interfaith encounter.'
