Globalization, Ethics and Islam

'An excellent example of co-operative scholarship between Muslims and Christians. Anyone who wishes to learn about a thoroughly orthodox, tolerant and eirenic Islam, as expressed by the early twentieth-century Turkish writer, Said Nursi, should read this book.' Professor Keith Ward, Christ Church, Oxford, UK 'It can no longer be said that 'east is east and west is west and never the twain shall meet.' The world of Islam has penetrated the western world in ways that cannot be ignored. Inter-religious dialogue is essential and this book will do much to facilitate that dialogue. It is a brilliant read.' Dr Tony Compolo, Founder and President of the Evangelical Association for the Promotion of Education, USA 'This is a welcome book: there are very few works on Said Nursi. It is obviously of great relevance in the post 9/11 period and will provide fascinating reading for scholars, academics and those interested in Islam, Turkey and in other fields of social science.' Professor Lloyd Ridgeon, University of Glasgow, UK '... this book is never less than fascinating.' Heythrop Journal
