The September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon left us stunned, angry, and uncomprehending.

In this level-headed and authoritative book, John L. Esposito, one of the world's most respected scholars of political Islam, provides answers.

The Islamic Threat: Myth or Reality?
ISBN: 9780195130768 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Are Islam and the West on a collision course? From the Ayatollah Khomeini to Saddam Hussein, the image of Islam as a militant, expansionist, and rabidly anti-American religion has gripped the minds of Western governments and media. But these perceptions, John L. Esposito writes, stem from a long history of mutual distrust, criticism, and condemnation, and are far too simplistic to help us understand one of the most important political issues of our time. In this new edition of The Islamic Threat: Myth or Reality?, Esposito places the challenge of Islam in critical perspective. Exploring the...

The Quran and the West
ISBN: 9781626163102 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Kenneth Cragg (1913-2012) was one of the West's most gifted interpreters of Islam. In this deeply insightful, classic work of Qur'anic studies, he argues that the West must put aside a "spiritual imperialism" that draws on Western prescripts alien to Muslims and "learn to come within" Islam. Only then can a conversation begin that can relieve the misunderstandings and suspicion that has grown between Islam and the West in the years since 9/11. Cragg's close and thoughtful readings are as timely and relevant now as they were when The Qur'an and the West was originally...

ISBN: 9780814782606 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 295 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Western civilization tends to view secularism as a positive achievement. From this perspective, benefits of secularizing trends include the separation of church and state, the rule of law, and freedom from organized religion. In the Arab Middle East, however, Islamist intellectuals increasingly cite Western-inspired secularism as the source of the region's social dislocation and political instability. While secularism in the West led to the spread of democratic values, in the Muslim world it has been associated with dictatorship, the violation of human rights, and the abrogation of...

But despite the pervasiveness of this phenomenon and its geopolitical significance, our understanding of the contemporary Islamic world has remained astonishingly limited. More than half of the world's 800 million Muslims live in Asia, and yet most people continue to think of Islam as an essentially Arab phenomenon. This wide-ranging volume brings together previously unpublished writings by leading authorities on Islamic affairs to provide the...
