A History of Christian-Muslim Relations

Appropriately designed to give an introductory overview of the encounter of Christianity and Islam...He approaches the subject as a historian of religion with sensitivity to the civilizational character of the Christian-Muslim encounter—i.e. an encounter in which 'religious' aspects must be set in a wider discussion of social, economic, political, and religious factors. -- David Kerr, University of Edinburgh
This overview…for general readers succeeds admirably. … Goddard’s book is an excellent introduction to Christian-Muslim relations. -- Thomas Burman * Journal of Religion *
Excellent summaries of contemporary interreligious dialogue and of thinkers from both religions who have demonstrated an interest in the other. -- Gregory J. Miller * Religious Studies Review *
