The position of the Qur'an as the central symbol and reference point
of Islam cannot be disputed. Despite this significance, the academic
study of the Qur'an has lagged far behind that of the Bible. In these
studies Andrew Rippin reflects upon both the principles and the
problems of studying the Qur'an within the discipline of religious
studies. He also pursues detailed investigations of the meaning of
variants to the text and the history of Muslim interpretation of the
text in its diversity. A newly written introduction lays out some of
the general implications of these studies, while extensive indexes of
Qur'anic verses, books, authors and topics make this research more
readily accessible.
