Exploring the beliefs, history and politics of the ordinary people of Muslim countries, Islam specialist Paul Grieve offers the most balanced and comprehensive account of Islam available. He addresses the big issues - can Islam support true democracy or is the West merely seeking a cover of legitimacy for a policy of 'might is right'? - and challenges stereotypical views in areas such as arts, women, banking, war, Malcolm X and literature. This is the ideal summary for the reader looking for an unbiased overview of political and religious world issues now part of our everyday lives.
