Paperback. Zustand: Good. Islam is one of the world's great monotheistic religions, a culture with 1500 years of history and a civilization of one billion people, constituting a quarter of humanity. Yet the religion which Muhammad founded is seen only in terms of oil and turmoil, fundamentalism and bigotry. A potent political force in global affairs, it is one of the least understood ideologies in the world. This book is an informative guide to the complex, and often perplexing, world of Islam. It recounts the history of Islam from Muhammad's birth in the later sixth century Arabian desert to its cultural and political force in our time. It provides an insight into Islamic beliefs and traditions and an examination of the new ideas and ideals that are shaping the Muslim world.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The controversial bestseller that caused huge waves in the UK The Independent calls it required reading. Noam Chomsky says it contains valuable information that we should know, over here, for our own good, and the world's. We call it our biggest book so far and will be backing it from day one with guaranteed coop spending, a national publicity and review blitz, talk radio bookings, various retail sales aids including postcards, and of course the usual full court press on the Web and via email.This is NOT just another 9/11 book: it is the book for those of us trying to understand why America--and Americans--are targets for hate. Many people do hate America, in Europe, Asia, South America and Africa, as well as in the Middle East. Ziauddin Sardar and Merryl Wyn Davies explore the global impact of America's foreign policy and its corporate and cultural power, placing this unprecedented dominance in the context of America's own perception of itself. In doing so, they consider TV and the Hollywood machine as a mirror which reflects both the American Dream and the American Nightmare. Their analysis provides an important contribution to a debate which needs to be addressed by people of all nations, cultures, religions and political persuasions--and especially by Americans.Described by The Times Higher Education Supplement as packed with tightly argued points, the book is carefully researched and built to withstand the inevitable criticism that will be aimed at it. A book that some reviewers will love to hate and others will praise for its insights, it's guaranteed to cause a stir.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Cultural studies - indisputably the hottest subject on planet earth! But what exactly is it? Where does it come from? What is it for?

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Islam is one of the world's great monotheistic religions. Islamic culture, spanning 1,500 years, has produced some of the finest achievements of humanity. Yet the religion followed by a fifth of humankind, including millions from diverse ethnic backgrounds in the US and Europe, is largely seen in the West in terms of fundamentalism, bigotry and violence, a perception reinforced by the terrorist atrocities in New York and Washington in 2001 and subsequent outrages. But the real message of Islam is very far indeed from this picture, making it perhaps the least understood religion in the world. This informative guide recounts the history of Islam from the birth of Phophet Muhammad in the 6th century to its status as a global culture and political force today. Charting the achievements of Muslim civilization, it explains the nature and message of the Qur'an, outlines the basic features of Islamic law, and assesses the impact of colonialism on Muslim societies. This book shows how Muslims everywhere are trying to live their faith and are struggling to shape new Islamic ideas and ideals in a globalized world. Malik, Zafar Abbas (illustrator).…
