The problems considered are issues of abiding philosophical interest:Freedom and determinismThe nature and meaning of historyThe basis of ethical valuesThe foundations and social implications of friendshipThe viability and relevance of the idea of GodThe approach taken here is distinctive in several ways. The perspective is cross-cultural, rather than parochial, synthetic rather than descriptive. The object is not to find the 'sources' of ideas, as if to credit the philosophical originality of one group or cast aspersions on the philosophical dependency of another, but rather to follow a conversation that takes place across the centuries. 606 $aIslamic philosophy 615 0$aIslamic philosophy. 676 $a181.07 700 $aGoodman$b Lenn Evan$f1944-$0526123 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813821903321 996 $aJewish and Islamic philosophy$93924818 997 $aUNINA
