"A fascinating and highly readable book." -- The Tablet."Written with a deep, though not uncritical, sympathy for the Copts, and a keen awareness of the problems they face in an Islamic society." --Church Times."I warmly commend Among the Copts as a substantial contribution to Ecumenical understanding." -- George Carey, former Archbishop of Canterbury."This book, well illustrated and with pictures of Coptic life and historical sites, is one of the best-informed and most authoritative books on the contemporary situation in the ancient Church of Alexandira." -- Coptic Church Review.
