This book explores the history, development, design and practicalities of multifaith spaces. From early shared religious buildings to shared spaces of modern secular locations, the book looks at the architectural, theological, social, legal and practical complexities that arise from the development and use of such spaces.
Terry Biddginton's superb examination of multifaith spaces will make a big contribution to inter-religious understanding. It offers an encyclopaedia of examples of the many ways in which people have wrestled with the dilemmas of creating multifaith spaces. Equally it provides a clear-sighted analysis of the underlying challenges and tensions which must be negotiated to enable the cohabitation of different faiths. It's a book whose relevance and usefulness will surely increase in the future.
