The title of this book reflects the entire book—and the lives and work of the authors.
A Muslim woman and a Jewish man demonstrate why they refuse to be enemies, even when large segments of their respective communities are them to be so. They use their own life stories and transform them into a dialogue of mutual respect, demonstrating to the reader that Muslims and Jews have more in common than they have differences.
The book is both manifesto and instruction as to how we can create communities that share rather than conflict with one another.
From Kerry's list on bringing Muslims and Jews together.
