Recenzje

This book provides a very comprehensive and cogent analysis of religious extremism, with a focus on disruptive challenges by Salafist groups and regional states' responses to them in Southeast Asia. Its diagnoses of the issues by a very seasoned scholar in the field is highly illuminating and penetrating. The book deserves to be read and its findings applied very widely.
