Description from the publisher:
The contemporary Muslim world is an incisive and comprehensive analysis of recent events in the world of Islam. Tariq Quraishi has made a major scholarly contribution to the understanding of recent events In the Arab world within the context of the Islamic fundamentalism. This book is a must for serious students of the Middle East and other related areas.
Riding the Spears makes compelling reading: it has many flashes of real insight, worthy opinions and judgements. I won’t be surprised if it stimulates earnest debate among concerned Muslims.
In the United States it is difficult to find out what is going on in the world or even in Washington. Although one may disagree with him on some details, Tariq provides a much-needed window on the world. And he does it with the masterful style and insight of a sage.
