Reviews

"Christian Theology and Islam is a fascinatingly ecclectic book. ... This would be a usefull addition to the shelves of a library or specialist scholar, but anyone with any interest in engaging with muslims should buy the book just for chapters three and five."
-Anvil, vol 31, issue 1, March 2015

"Full of scholarly detail ... the gem in the book is an essay on 'The Missing Peace of Evangelical Missiology' in which the author argues that the Christian's mandates of peace-making and evangelising not only can go hand in hand but must be pursued together. This has application well beyond the area of Christian-Muslim dialogue which is the focus of the book."
-Gertrud Sollars, The Reader, Volume 113, Issue 2, Summer 2015

"The merit of this book consists in presenting effective systems for approaching an interfaith dialogue with Islam."
-Alessandro Giostra, Reviews in Religion and Theology 23:1, 2016
