520    "A number of innovative hermeneutical approaches emerged 
       in Muslim exegetical discourse in the second half of the 
       20th century. Among these developments is a trend of 
       systematic reform theology that emphasises a humanistic 
       approach, whereby revelation is understood to be dependent
       not only upon its initiator, God, but also upon its 
       recipient, Prophet Muhammad, who takes an active role in 
       the process. Ali Akbar examines the works of four noted 
       scholars of Islam: Fazlur Rahman (Pakistan), Abdolkarim 
       Soroush (Iran), Muhammad Mujtahed Shabestari (Iran) and 
       Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd (Egypt). His study shows that the 
       consequences of taking a humanistic approach to 
       understanding revelation are not confined to the realm of 
       speculation about God-human relations, but also to 
       interpreting Qur'anic socio-political precepts. And the 
       four scholars emerge as a distinctive group of Muslim 
       thinkers who open up a new horizon in contemporary Islamic
       discourse." -- provided by publisher, back cover
