"A guide to gaining understanding and building connections between the world's two largest religions, written from the perspective of a Christian who has lived and worked in Islamic countries"--Provided by publisher.

Carson traces the subtle but enormous shift in the way we have come to understand tolerance over recent years--from defending the rights of those who hold different beliefs to affirming all beliefs as equally valid and correct. He looks back at the history of this shift and discusses its implications for culture today, especially its bearing on democracy, discussions about good and evil, and Christian truth claims. --from publisher description
