Islamic Fundamentalism

The essayists in this anthology discuss the difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalism and how they relate to the West. Debates include whether Islamic fundamentalism is compatible with Democracy, whether Islamist misogyny is rooted in Islam, whether Islamic fundamentalism is a threat to the United States, and whether all religions have some sort of fundamentalism. By presenting well-researched opposing sides of each topic, this book will enrich your reader's understanding of this essential issue.
