In The Quest for Meaning, Tariq Ramadan, philosopher and
Islamic scholar, invites the reader to join him on a journey
to the deep ocean of religious, secular, and indigenous
spiritual traditions to explore the most pressing
contemporary issues. Along the way, Ramadan interrogates the
concepts that frame current debates including: faith and
reason, emotions and spirituality, tradition and modernity,
freedom, equality, universality, and civilization. He
acknowledges the greatest flashpoints and attempts to bridge
divergent paths to a common ground between these religious
and intellectual traditions. He calls urgently for a deep
and meaningful dialogue that leads us to go beyond tolerant
co-existence to mutual respect and enrichment. Written in a
both direct and meditative style this is an important,
timely and intelligent book that aims to direct and shape
debate around the most important questions of our time.
