Islam in the World has long been considered one of the best books
for gaining an understanding of modern Islam. In this updated
edition, Islamic expert Malise Ruthven adds a new preface and new
chapters analyzing the major issues of today, including the impact
of 9/11, the meaning of "the war on terror," and the overthrow of
Saddam Hussein. New material also explains important differences
within Islam that many Westerners are just beginning to learn
about, including the rivalry between Sunnis and Shias, the
relationship between Sufism and modern Islamism and the debates
about democracy raging throughout the Muslim Word.
This invaluable introductory guide presents a full overview of
Islam in its historical, geographic, and social settings and
explains how the quest for spiritual fulfillment is inevitably
bound up with political aspirations.
