‘Abraham’ by Bruce Feiler (book review)
Abraham is a hugely important figure in the three major monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam).

‘Christians, Muslims, and Jesus’ by Mona Siddiqui (book review)
I am convinced that there is one God. This is not the God of one particular religion only, but the God of all religions and of all creation.
