| Abstract
|
:
|
Focusing on Abu Hamid al-Ghazali, the preeminent Muslim thinker, this book argues that his work has lasting relevance as a model for a critical encounter with Muslim intellectual tradition in a modern and postmodern context. It proposes that Muslims who place their own traditions in conversation with modern traditions share the same vantage point.
