ajiss-1295	Whittingham, Martin	Al-Ghazali’s Philosophical Theology: By Frank Griffel (New York: Oxford University Press, 2009. 408 pages)	2010.0	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1121	44	50	408 pages This work of historical theology is essential reading for those wanting to understand with new depth and clarity the life and teachings of al-Ghazali (d. 505/1111). In contrast, Griffel sets out to demonstrate that al-Ghazali “is the first Muslim theologian who actively promotes the naturalization of the philo- sophical tradition into Islamic theology” (p. 7) and that his writings are ‘a particular kind of Avicennism’ (p. 14).	cache/ajiss-1295.pdf	txt/ajiss-1295.txt
