ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I am grateful to the Woolf Institute, Cambridge, for the Junior Research Fellowship that allowed me to carry out the research which went into this book between August 2013 and December 2015. I profited greatly from the interdisciplinary spirit and academic freedom at the Institute, as well as the unique way in which serious scholarship is combined with public engagement at the Institute. I am also grateful to St Edmund’s College, Cambridge, where I was a research associate during this period. This made it possible for me to work long hours when needed, in the lovely atmosphere of the college, and with regular doses of coffee in the Senior Combination Room. Many people deserve thanks for the various ways in which they have contributed to this book. I can only mention a few here. I want to thank especially those who have spent a lot of their energy and time to read various drafts of the chapters of this book, or to listen to my talks which were based on those drafts, and give me valuable comments and critique. First and foremost, I would like to thank Ed Kessler, whose patience with, and persistent interest in, my developing research for this book were a constant encouragement. His constructive criticism reflected his extensive knowledge in interreligious studie
