• Timely and accessible, this book tackles the question of why the reality, and vitality, of other religions has become a challenge for Christianity
  
• Makes a decisive contribution to debates about the clash between Islam and the West, arguing that the major threat to religious freedoms come from secularism, and that Islam and Christianity both have the resources to develop a vibrant and pluralist public square; one informed by intellectual rigor and debate
  
• Considers the wider issue of how modernity has defined ‘religion’, and provides a substantial critique of secular ways of controlling religions
  
• Shows how Christianity is very well suited to deal with religious plurality at the doctrinal and social level
