Several books of interest have been published through the Ecumenical Press.


Leonard Swidler, Khalid Duran, and Reuven Firestone, a Christian, a Muslim and a Jew, present their faith traditions and the challenges and possibilities for “trialogue” among them. Each offers valuable insights into how the beliefs and practices in his own tradition have evolved through the centuries, and suggests points of connection emerging out of shared Abrahamic roots. Throughout the text, readers are encouraged to pause for reflection and/or discussion of the key points presented by the authors. All three authors are regular participants in the International Scholars’ Abrahamic Trialogue.
Leonard Swidler is Professor of Catholic Thought and Interreligious Dialogue in the Religion Department at Temple University since 1966. Khalid Duran has taught at the Free University of Berlin (where he earned his Ph.D.), Hamburg University, University of Oslo, Islamabad University, the Catholic University of America, University of California-Irvine, American University, United Nations University, and Temple University. Reuven Firestone is professor of medieval Judaism and Islam at Hebrew Union College in Los Angeles.
