Fear and friendship - Anglicans engaging with Islam
Thu 15 March 2012

Many encounters between people of different religions are marked by an initial sense of incompetence, ignorance and fear - of getting it wrong, of causing offence, of ulterior motives. This book explores such fears in stories of actual situations and relationships - often unexpected, sometimes funny, invariably profound.
Friendship is presented as a public rather than merely a private phenomenon, enabling relations of trust and depth to develop and encouraging people to address the fears that so often prohibit inter-religious encounters from deepening beyond the superficial.
