This book is written by a well know Australian jounalist who has spent extensive time in the middle east region and has collected information from many sources including first hand conversations and interviews with arab-muslims. I really enjoyed reading this book and hearing about a subject which isn't really understood in most parts of the western world: Islam. The book is not bias but presents information and truths which allow the reader to think. It is easy to read, as every topic is only a few pages long, which also keeps momentum while reading... The main topics are religion, culture, and views on modern conflicts in the region (mainly the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Americas post 9/11 war on terrorism) and relations with the west - primarily the USA. An overall good read to those interested in learning about the subject.
4/5 Stars
