History of Christian-Muslim Relations [PDF ebook] 

Christians and Muslims comprise the world’s two largest religious communities. This book looks at the history of their relationship — part peaceful co-existence and part violent confrontation — from their first encounters in the medieval period up to the present. It emphasises the theological, cultural and political context in which perceptions and attitudes have developed and gives a depth of historical insight to the complex current Christian-Muslim interactions across the globe.
