Quakers And Jews

BY ALLAN KOHRMAN
"Allan Kohrman's pamphlet, `Quakers & Jews,' is primarily focused on Friends response to the protracted Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He asserts that Friends organizations, including the AFSC and FUM, are uneven and unfair in their support of Palestine over and against Israel. Allan contends that longstanding systemic and even conscious anti-Semitism underlies the policy stances of these organizations. As we work to assist peoples suffering from the effects of war and injustice, Allan reminds us that the heart of Friends witness is to listen for and respond to `that of God' in all people, on all sides." - Jonathan Vogel-Borne

The Quran, A Biography

BY BRUCE LAWRENCE
Bruce Lawrence shows precisely how the Qur'an is Islam. He describes the origins of the faith and assesses its tremendous influence on today's societies and politics. Above all, Lawrence emphasizes that the Qur'an is a sacred book of signs that has no single message. It is a book that demands interpretation and one that can be properly understood only through its history. Lawrence's work is a beautifully written and, in these increasingly troubled times, invaluable introduction to and exploration of the core sacred text of Islam.
