"The implications of understanding between the religions are as unclear as it is clear that such understanding is badly needed. What is intriguing about this volume is not only that it enters this still widely uncharted territory but that many of its contributions explore which light the continental tradition of hermeneutic philosophy might shed on this field."
--Perry Schmidt-Leukel

"This is a book packed with expertise and insight. In light of the complexities of interreligious dialogue, the authors use the creativity of hermeneutical understanding to walk a necessary discovering those meanings that cut across religious traditions while respecting the particularity and non-negotiable otherness that exists in every religious tradition. The savvy editors have crafted a substantive volume that gives hope for true dialogue in our world of almost bewildering religious diversity."
