Synopsis

In the face of the growing threat from collisions of faith world-wide, this manifesto is a call to embrace religious pluralism.

• Martin E. Marty is a renowned commentator on religious matters, the author of over 50 books, winner of the National Book Award, and the recipient of 74 honorary doctorates
  
• Demonstrates that citizens, religions and identities can survive in radically pluralist settings
  
• Accessibly written, it tackles people's fears of religious pluralism
  
• Argues that those involved in collisions of faith need to risk hospitality towards one another, as opposed to the conventional plea for tolerance
