Recenzii

"In the tense global climate riddled with fear, violence, and apprehension, Nawar Shora successfully demystifies cultures and religions often cloaked with misinformation or incomplete labels. The Arab American Handbook has helped me in gaining a stronger, more accurate, understanding of the Arab, Arab-American, and Muslim communities." -- Joseph Persichini, Jr, Assistant Director, FBI Washington Field Office
"This is a must read for every American to better understand their fellow citizen and overcome the igno-rance most of us share." -- Jeffrey A Hawkins, Executive Director of the Christian Security Network
"Nawar's often humorous approach is original, fresh and more than that, it tells the story of Arab, Arab-American, and Muslim cultures better than any other book of this type." -- Dr Christine Schiwietz, Georgetown University Department of Sociology.
