Abstract
The Logos of Life and Cultural Interlacing, the seventh volume of the series Islamic Philosophy and Occidental Phenomenology in Dialogue (IPOP) is the most recent addition to an initiative that seeks to promote cross-cultural understanding and a cross-cultural dialogue in an increasingly divided world at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Such a division caused by epistemological and cultural constructions of difference, for example the polarity of the western and the Islamic world, can only intensify the ongoing segregation of the world and is therefore debatable.
