Muhammad Ahsan
In a globalised world that is, nevertheless, contorted by great misunderstandings, this book by Ali Mohammadi and Muhammad Ahsan is both timely and Important. It addresses Western misunderstanding about the Muslim world, and offers a critique of the West’s own fundamentalism which would be ironic were it not so tragic. At the same time, the Muslim World requires a development beyond its own present narrowness and poverty. The book is a corrective, but an evenhanded one; and its sense of urgency is always tempered by scholarly values. The authors have done great service to the idea of equitable global development – something not easily found in today’s globalization.
