About this product
Product Information
We are constantly fed false information about Islam - but what does the Qur'an actually say? In this book Wills, as a non-Muslim with an open mind, reads the Qur'an with sympathy and vigor, trying to discover why other non-Muslims - like Pope Francis'find it an inspiring book, worthy to guide people down through the centuries. He compares the Qur'an with other sacred books, the Old Testament and the New Testament, to show the parallels between them. There are also parallel difficulties of interpretation, which call for patient exploration, and which offer some thrills of discovery.

Reviews
"Wills has written perhaps the best introduction to the Quran that I know of: elegant, insightful, even at times joyful...his encounter with it is a pleasure to read for anyone as open to discovery as he is." -- The New York Times "A useful and worthy interpretation that non-Muslims will find illuminating...Best-selling Wills' stature will draw many readers."-- Booklist "A work of intimate and charitable interreligious dialogue." - Publishers Weekly Additional Praise for Garry Wills: "Garry Wills is not only one of the country's most distinguished intellectuals but also one of its most provocative, bringing his learning to bear on great questions of history and contemporary politics." -- The New York Times Book Review "America's greatest public intellectual." -- Chicago Tribune "Garry Wills is simultaneously one of this country's leading public intellectuals and American Catholicism's most formidable lay scholar. . . . What makes Wills's contribution unique in a country whose shelves of religious books these days overflow with vitriol, bombast and treacle is his singular combination of intellectual integrity and authentically unsentimental spirituality." -- Los Angeles Times
