Author - Michael Nazir-Ali
"This book meets a significant need and demonstrates vividly the potential in risking an encounter on such a crucial frontier. . . . [T]he reader is drawn into the meaning of the Christ for those living in a Muslim environment. It is an important encounter, but with Christ as he is and Islam so demanding, it will bring an incalculable reward." —David Penman, Archbishop of Melbourne, former missionary in Pakistan and Lebanon
