Islam in the Modern World (Paperback, New)

This comprehensive introduction explores the landscape of contemporary Islam. Written by a distinguished team of scholars, it:

• provides broad overviews of the developments, events, people and movements that have defined Islam in the three majority-Muslim regions

• investigates new themes and trends that are shaping the modern Muslim experience such as gender, fundamentalism, the media and secularisation
• offers case studies of Muslims and Islam in dynamic interaction with different societies.
