330   $aWinner of The Iranian World Prize for the Book of the Year 2007 in the Philosophy and Mysticism category.This new and original text provides a timely re-examination of Islamic thought, presenting a stark contrast to the more usual conservative view.

The early period of Islam reveals a diversity of interpretations of this relationship. Elkaisy-Friemuth d
