Reviews / Votes
Winner of the Society of Buddhist Christian Studies' annual "Fredercik J. Streng Book Award" for 2003 'From the first page, the reader is drawn into a dynamic interchange between the two traditions, undertaken in honour of a giant within the study of religions in the USA, Fred Streng. The content is rich and varied. Justice cannot be done to it in a short review. Crucial issues are discussed concerning the nature of inter-religious dialogue. This book will be a source of enjoyment and inspiration to anyone interested in the encounter between Buddhism and Christianity and indeed in inter-religious encounter in general.' - Elizabeth J. Harris, Reviews in Religion and TheologyMore details
