Islam and the Baha'i Faith by Oliver Scharbrodt
This book explores the development of Islam and the Baha'i faith in the nineteenth century via the examination of two key reformers."Oliver Scharbrodt provides a striking exception to this history of disinterest and neglectHe does not just take a second look at the two movements; he places them firmly within the history of modern Islamic reform. The result is a compelling achievement that opens up new avenues for research in both areas and for the re-examination of matters chronologically prior to and after the two men whose careers form the basis for the present work. Scharbrodt’s own research is just what a study like this demands: detailed, wide-ranging, and careful."
- Denis MacEoin in Religion 40 (2010), pp. 72-73
