New Book: Western Perceptions of Islam and Global Terrorism


Western perceptions of Islam and global terrorism is an analysis of the pathology of extremist behavior that has taken the modern world awry. Although, the word “terrorism” dates back to a couple of centuries, its modern manifestations are most disturbing in that it is paradoxically associated with the pristine tradition of Islam whose etymology as well as goal is none other than the establishment of comprehensive peace – with oneself, with one’s Creator, and with the rest of His creation. Islam, the book argues, is the solution to extremism, not the cause of it.
