Islam and Muslims today than at any other time are a matter of great attention throughout the world especially in the west. In the wake of 9/11 the global media with rare exceptions is feeding the world with largely prejudiced and negative images of both. The unbalanced approach of the global media can only be described as Islam/Muslim bashing. Islam and Muslims are not monolithic. The Lived Islam has a great diversity and heterogeneity. The book through its twenty three articles presents a variety of aspects of Islam and Muslim societies. Starting with modernity and Islam and the Arabian quest for freedom justice and human dignity it journeys through the Islamisation of Moroland in the Philippines and discourse on South Asian identity as Islamic identity in England. Issues regarding Islamic Banking role of Zakat in poverty alleviation in Bangladesh analysis of occupation and economy among Indian Muslims have been dealt with in an objective manner. Gender in Islam and women's movement among Indian Muslims along with imperatives of education among Muslim girls present a relatively ignored aspect of Muslim societies. The socio economic condition of Indian Muslims based on field studies makes an objective assessment of plight of Indian while the much maligned Madrasas have also been put under critical scrutiny. A very important article on the role of social scientists in Muslim societies has posed a number of questions of critical importance to the Muslims of the entire globe. Thus the present volume may be looked at as an important contribution to the growing literature on Islam and Muslims but one thing that puts it apart from the crowd of writings is that every piece has been written by a social scientist and not by the pamphleteers and non serious self proclaimed experts. 352 pp.
