Abstract
The book of a famous philosopher, Muhammad Legenhausen, is a perfect example of interaction between Western philosophical and Eastern religious traditions. Being an expert in Western philosophical tradition, the author uses it as a background for analysing key issues of Islamic philosophical and religious thought that cause controversy nowadays. The author’s objective is to present these problems, which are often remain ignored in the discussions of Western philosophers, in a more comprehensive way on a global scale.
The book is beneficial for all those interested in the questions of modern philosophy, including its Islamic tradition, and also for those participating or interested in interfaith dialogue.
