Abdelwahab Meddeb’s Islam and the Challenge of Civilization offers new
perspectives on and fresh associations among historical events in a way that
draws the curtain and adjusts the view among Muslim public intellectuals.
Situated within the broad scholarship of Islamic thought, it engages critically
and creatively with various doctrinal issues that are being manipulated by
some Muslim opinion leaders to support their own bellicose positions.
