Pressezitat
'Saeed's Introduction is an excellent work for students and general readers who are seeking a well-written and sympathetic introduction to the Qur'an that does not avoid the critical questions that feature in contemporary scholarship. The book provides a comprehensive view of both what the Qur'an says and how Muslims have interacted with the text during history. The full power of the Qur'anic text is conveyed along with the diversity of reactions to it in both olden and modern times. Overall Saeed has provided us with a valuable classroom tool that is both accessible and informative.' - Andrew Rippin, University of Victoria, author of Muslims: Their Religious Beliefs and Practices
