Muslim-Jewish relations in the United States, Israel, and Europe are tenuous. Jews and Muslims struggle to understand one another and know little about each other's traditions and beliefs. Firestone explains the remarkable similarities and profound differences between Judaism and Islam, the complex history of Jihad, the legal and religious positions of Jews in the world of Islam, how various expressions of Islam (Sunni, Shia, Sufi, Salafi, etc.) regard Jews, the range of Muslim views about Israel, and much more. He addresses these issues and others with candor and integrity, and he writes with language, symbols, and ideas that make sense to Jews. Exploring these subjects in today's vexed political climate is a delicate undertaking. Firestone draws on the research and writings of generations of Muslim, Jewish, and other scholars, as well as his own considerable expertise in this field. The book's tone is neither disparaging, apologetic, nor triumphal. Firestone provides many original sources in translation, as well as an appendix of additional key sources in context. Most importantly, this book is readable and reasoned, presenting to readers for the first time the complexity of Islam and its relationship toward Jews and Judaism.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect over a picnic table!
Size: 6.5x10ft, Color: Lake Blue
Great umbrella. We used it over a rectangular picnic table and the shape was perfect. Love the color too!

Attractive and seems like it will hold up
Size: 6.5x10ft, Color: Blue-Green Stripe
Seems sturdy enough. Tilt button is difficult to retract to straight, but maybe just my finger strength, or it will loosen up with time. The color of one of the stripes is off from the photo. I was hoping it was turquoise as shown in picture, but is actually a much deeper blue. Doesn't coordinate with my other patio colors like I hoped it would, but it will do.
