"Reynolds' book is a lucidly written and unique contribution to the study of Islam. By highlighting scholarly perspectives on Muhammad and the Qur'an in an accessible and well-researched manner, Reynolds has provided students and general readers with a remarkable resource. The extension of his insights to the implications of the material for Muslim discussions about their faith in contemporary times provides a stimulating introduction to the relevance of history to today's world." -- Andrew Rippin "University of Victoria"
