Comparative religions specialist Aslan writes of the history of Islam as a spiritual faith which is linked to the traditions of both Christian and Jewish Scriptures. He sees European colonialism and the industrial revolution as events which forced a rethinking of Islamic values in order to reconcile with the social and political realities of the world. He views the future as a challenge to Islam to harmonize with human rights and the ideals of democracy. Includes a glossary and extensive bibliographic notes.
