520    "A prominent rabbi and imam, each raised in orthodoxy, 
       overcome the temptations of bigotry and work to bridge the
       chasm between Muslims and Jews. Sons of Abraham relates 
       the unlikely friendship between the orthodox Rabbi Marc 
       Schneier and Imam Shamsi Ali. Despite the anti-Muslim and 
       anti-Semitic prejudices they were exposed to in their 
       youth, these two men forged a lasting friendship in the 
       tumultuous decade following the attacks of 9/11. Here they
       share their vision of how Jews and Muslims can work to 
       find common ground. To that end, they analyze some of the 
       religious texts that divide--but can also unite--Jews and 
       Muslims, and address the pressing issues of the day, such 
       as why Jews should be concerned about Islamophobia and why
       Muslims should care about anti-Semitism. In a time when 
       Jews and Muslims are viewed as incorrigible enemies, Sons 
       of Abraham is an example of a genuine alliance that gives 
       readers a cause for hope"--|cProvided by publisher.
