Al-Ghazali and the Ashárite School

"There is no comparable English study of al-Ghazali's place in Islamic theology. The book illustrates that al-Ghazali could be an especially attractive figure for comparative studies of how Latin and Arabic medieval authors approach the problem of the relations between philosophy and theology, faith and reason."--Deborah Black, Pontifical Institute/Center for Medieval Studies, University of Toronto
