In A Dialogue of Civilizations, Dr. Jill Carroll provides a forum for interfaith dialogue through the progressive Islamic ideals of Turkish intellectual and philosopher Fethullah Gulen. Gulen, who is renowned worldwide for his work promoting education, cross-cultural dialogue and the reconciliation of science and faith, has spent his life striving to solve societal and spiritual ills.

Gulen’s theories are presented alongside those of well-known philosophers—Kant, Confucius, Plato, Sartre and John Stuart Mill—creating a discussion on basic humanistic subjects, such as freedom, education and inherent human dignity. Through this open conversation across time and culture, Dr. Carroll reveals the essential principles and deeply-held convictions that bind us all together, no matter what our religious beliefs.

Foreword is written by Akbar Ahmed of American University, Washington, DC.
