Review
2 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Trying to understand Islamic FundamentalismBy A CustomerI found this book well organized and very readable. For someone who knows little or nothing about Islam and fundamentalism; I recommend this book. There is historical background as well as reference to current events. Everything fits together. It is worth the cost of the book.
