Hello,
The book was definitely a good read for me. Even as I am Muslim and am quite
familiar with Islam and the misdirected labels put on it, the book still
taught me quite a bit. There are quite a few Arabic words in there, but the
authord does a good job of defining them for the nonarabic speaker (I myself
do not know Arabic but found the book to be quite understandable) which is a
change from other Islamic books I have read which are written as if everyone
who reads them speaks Arabic. smile.

Hello, Munawar,
I thank you for the suggestion. I will look for this book. I rather believe
that there are so many things we don't understand in regard to the culture
of the Middle East, and what we do hear is often quite frightening.
Being an eternal optimist, I would like to think that one day we can better
accept the cultural differences and live in this world in peace.
Again, thank you so much for the suggestion as that sounds like a good place
to start.

Guide Dog, Primrose
