Islam in the Modern World: Religions in the Modern World

Editat de Jeffrey T. Kenney, Ebrahim Moosa
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 iul 2013
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

  • offers case studies of Muslims and Islam in dynamic interaction with different societies.
Islam in the Modern World includes illustrations, summaries, discussion points and suggestions for further reading that will aid understanding and revision. Additional resources are provided via a companion website.
