Product Description
This wide-ranging discussion of Jews & Arabs, Judaism & Islam, is historical, psychological, & anthropological in approach. By focusing his study on folk culture, Raphael Patai makes a unique contribution, complementing classic works in the field. The volume is a distillation of the best available material on the subject of Jewish-Arab interactions over the ages. It provides an excellent overview of Arab-Jewish relations vis-a-vis religion, theology, culture, literature, & politics from the pre-Muhammad period to the present day, showing the shared heritage as well as divergence of Arab & Jew. Winner of the Jewish Book Council Award & the Anisfield-Wolf Award in Race Relations.
