At the present time, when so-called Islamic radicalism, terrorism and Jihadism occupy major media space, with Islam often depicted as the main culprit, the book attempts a tour de force. It proposes that Islam is as much victim as culprit in the history that has led to the current hostility. This is because the common claims of both mainstream and radical Islam that Islam represents the high point of the Abrahamic tradition, and therefore a purification of Judaism and Christianity, have been largely ignored, misunderstood or blatantly rejected by these faiths and therefore by ‘the West’ in general. This rejection has effectively rendered Islam as the poor cousin, if not the illegitimate sibling, of the tradition. In turn, this has created long-term resentment and hostility within Islam as well as robbed the ‘Judaeo-Christian West’ of a rich, inter-faith understanding of the wider Abrahamic tradition. The book explores these claims through textual, historical and theological analyses, proposing that many of them stand up better to critical scrutiny than has been commonly acknowledged. It further proposes that seeing Islam in this way has potential to re-awaken its self-understanding as a leader of accord among the Abrahamic faiths, of the kind that characterized the era of Convivencia when, in medieval Spain, Islam constructed and contributed to advanced civilizations characterized by relatively harmonious co-existence between Muslims, Christians and Jews. The book focuses on the role that a more respected and self-confident Islam could play in forging enhanced inter-faith relations in a world that desperately needs them as it struggles to understand and deal with modern and particularly vicious forms of radical Islamism.

"A major challenge for people of faith is to resist the growing demonization of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism . . . I want to do something to build bridges between the three religions. I feel called to embody in my own life the healing, the reconciliation, the unity I long for between people of different religions." Art Gish became involved in the life and worship of all three religions; he considered himself a Christian, a Muslim, and a Jew, and worked at integrating those three perspectives into his life. Acknowledging that Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are all threatened by narrow-minded, violent extremists who put the particular interests of their own people above our common interests, he tells inspiring stories of open-minded Muslims, Jews, and Christians who struggle together for reconciliation and who confront injustices that spawn hostility. Gish looks not only at the disagreements but also at the unity of the three Abrahamic faiths. He writes, "When people cross boundaries, exciting things happen. Each time in Israel/Palestine that I experience Jews, Muslims, and Christians eating, working, laughing, and crying together, I sense a foretaste of the coming kingdom of God, a demonstration of how things could be, and one day will be."

World Peace is told from the perspective of a mediator, and begins with the idea that since we, as a species, have completed the directive of God to populate the planet, the time has come for our next phase of evolution. World Peace promotes the idea that being a good neighbor alone will not work to resolve conflict, but rather developing interdependent relationships between the three religions of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity, is the way. By accomplishing this goal we will gain new problem-solving tools which can be used to lay the foundation for survival of humankind on this planet for the next 1000 years, thus it promotes future sustainability. World Peace is not just based on theory, but utilizes a realistic and practical framework using mediation and organizational development tools to facilitate change. At last, an ingenious plan for creating peace in the Middle East between Christians, Muslims, and Jewish people. Based on the biblical prophecies that the world and humankind will come to an end when peace comes to the Abrahamic religions of the Middle East, and thus ushering a new era of peace, interdependence, and future sustainability. A practical guide for local community leaders addressing multicultural changes. Holds the premise that peace will not come as a matter of being a good neighbor, but rather a asks that the three religions join together as three parts of one whole interdependent body. Focuses on the United States as the initial battleground for the short-term cultural resolutions, economic reform, and political reform as catalysts for meeting long term objectives of global social change. Centered on meditation and prayer to God for Spiritual Guidance to help us through knowing what steps to take, to open doors, and for the light to shine on our path to peace. A wonderful new perspective and paradigm shift about learning new ways of thinking about religion. Creates not only the vision but also a realistic process and framework to create a sustainable future and peace for all of humankind. The addendum includes a mediation manual of the OurWayHome method. George Michael Payne has a Masters of Nonprofit Administration (MNA) with a specialization in Organizational Development from the University of San Francisco (USF), a certificate in International Human Rights Law from the l'Institute International des Droits de l'Homme (IIDH), Strasbourg, France, and has worked with nonprofits that are associated with peace, nonviolence, and social change. He is also a trained mediator and an executive coach."

Empiric facts indicate that there is not only a correlation but also a causality between religion and violence; one of the main topics of this book being how to reconcile the various world religions with mainstream ethics. In addition the author addresses delicate topics connected to religous culture, such as Modern Islam, sexuality, LGBT Rights, civil liberties, freedom of expression, gender equality, emotional intelligence and open-mindedness; providing innovative thoughts and suggestions on these matters. But this book does not only tackle the shortcomings of religions. Embarking on a great mystic quest, Mark O'Doherty also explores the great merits of the world religions; from which we can learn and evolve - on an individual as well as on a collective level - blending Arabic, African, Western, Indian and Chinese spirituality into one new way of life, by advocating a tolerance of ambiguity, harmony and love.

Rarely out of the spotlight of international news, the crises in the Near East often arouse violent emotions. How can opposing claims by Muslims, Jews and Christians to "the land" be reconciled? The author brilliantly explores the historical and theological background to this conflict. With compassion, commitment to peace and deep spiritual insight, he provides keys to understanding God's election. Marcel Rebiai was born in Algeria, grew up in Switzerland, and is now the founder and leader of the Community of Reconciliation based in Jerusalem. He is an authority on the current situation in the Near East, particularly in relation to the Islamic world. "We must refuse to be emotionally drawn into hostile prejudices. This requires much discipline and intentional living, which I believe is possible only in the power of God." Marcel Rebiai
