This review is from: Inquiring of Joseph: Getting to Know a Biblical Character Through the Qur'an (Interfaces) (Paperback)
This book is written in a relaxed manner and makes use of simple language. That is not to downplay the impressive knowledge, interpretations and tolerant tone. This is one of my favorite books of all time. This book really stirs intellectual curiosity and makes you more inquisitive to keep reading. The writer does a brilliant job of bringing facts to surface, giving various interpretations and his own commentary, all while letting the reader make their own judgments. A true gem!
