Inhaltsangabe

Contemporary Review, July 1997
"This insightful, well-documented anthology clearly identifies the common
thread and threat of religious extremism affecting the entire Middle East
... The reader will find much food for thought here and a welcome antidote
to the all too frequent sensationalism of simplistic media coverage ... The
book is not only topical and up to date but embodies in its fourteen
portrait studies all the fundamental elements of the cultural geography and
history of the Middle East."
Times Literary Supplement, 30 May 1997
Journal of Palestine Studies - Summer 1998 - Reviewed by Norbert Scholz
"This collection offers a refreshing antidote to populist notions about the
existence of a "fundamentalist internationale".
Orbis, Fall 98
Political Studies- " This interesting and useful study examines the nature
of religious fundamentalism in the Greater Middle East"
ISRAFAX, Vol. XI, No. 220, Nov. 1999
"The subjects analyzed in this book are unique in many ways ... This
collection provides comprehwensive political analysis of religious
radicalism in the Greater Middle East - including Central Asia and North
America - which is invaluable to scholars, policymakers and lay people
alike."
Ethnic Conflict Research Digest
"A worthwhile collection that contains a good deal of material and insight
for those interested in the contemporary Middle East and Central Asia."
