Recenzii

'This remarkably comprehensive presentation combines depth of historical detail with breadth of interpretive vision. It provides an in-depth alternative to alarmist and simplistic discussions that concentrate on current headlines. Bonney presents a fair and balanced picture of the full range of Muslim thought from medieval mystics to contemporary activists and militants.' - John Voll, Director of the Centre for Muslim-Christian Understanding, Georgetown University, USA
'Mandatory reading...This new reappraisal of the evolution of the concept of Jihad in Islamic history...is particularly timely and welcome.' - from the Foreword by Zaki M. Badawi, Muslim College London, UK
'[A] sound, comprehensive and enlightening book on this greatly debated topic. It can be appreciated by [all] readers, given its objectivity, integrity and impartiality.' - Hassan Hanafi, Professor of Philosophy, Cairo University, Egypt
'Richard Bonney, in this timely and important work, studies the evolution of the concept of jihad, or struggle in the way of the Lord, in Muslim history...Bonney makes a major step forward in bringing much real learning to our understanding of jihad, which is too often distorted by sheer ignorance. This book should give journalists and politicians pause for thought, as well as the public in general. - Francis Robinson, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK
'A comprehensive treatment of the subject both from the perspective of the development of the idea of Jihad in Muslim and general global thinking, but also a good critical introduction to the history of the doctrine in Muslim theology and jurisprudence. A fair and judicious treatment of the subject which will be welcomed by all readers.' - Muhammad Khalid Masud, formerly Academic Director, ISIM (International Institute for Islam in the Modern World), The Netherlands
'Richard Bonney's work on Jihad presents the most comprehensive analysis of the topic ever written, covering the time period from the revelation of the Quran up through contemporary events. Bonney effectively demonstrates that there is no single interpretation of jihad, but that interpretations have varied according to historical circumstance, geographical location, and political need. Exhaustively researched and highly detailed, it adds an important historical dimension to the ongoing debates about contemporary interpretations and distortions of jihad as holy war.' - Dr Natana DeLong-Bas, author of Wahhabi Islam: From Revival and Reform to Global Jihad and Notable Muslims: A Biographical Dictionary
'Such books would help our efforts aimed at clearing away misunderstanding about Islam especially the Jihad by the Western world.' - Muhammad Ijaz-ul-Haq, Minister for Religious Affairs, Pakistan
'Bonney's volume is a good piece of academic work...can be recommended as an informative read.' - Naima Mouhleb, Journal of Peace Research
