- "Compiled by Stuart E. Brown".
- "'Meeting in Faith' is more than a sequel to the earlier publication 'Christian Meeting Muslims' (1977) which brought together WCC [World Council of Churches] papers on ten years of Christian-Muslim dialogue. It tells the story of the beginnings, and updates it. .... the book is both a documentary record of Christian-Muslim dialogue sponsored by the WCC and a corpus of basic texts for further exploration of the social, diaconal and theological frontiers of dialogue. It is a testimony to the growth of an idea and it is also offered as encouragement and inspiration to all who would play a role in this happy adventure of understanding and peace". -- back cover.
