At the Entrance to the Garden of Eden: A Jew's Search for God with Christians and Muslms in the Holy Land
Publisher: Morrow
ISBN#: ISBN 0-688-16908-2
Author: Yossi Klein Halevi
Location: New York
Year: 2001

Description: An Israeli journalist's account of his attempt to gain deep acquaintance with Christianity and Islam--and more importantly, with Christians and Muslims. His method is to reach out as a mystic to other mystics. The political, the religious, and the personal intertwine as Klein seeks an answer to the question: Can faith solve what armies and diplomats have not? A highly recommended read for anyone concerned about the Israeli-Palestinian issue, but Klein's method and insights have relevance for other contexts as well.
