The Losing Battle With Islam by David Selbourne
A study of the Islamic revival from 1947, it traces the complex causes motivating the rise of Muslim fundamentalism in many countries and the West's uncomprehending response to it. It describes the hostilities, cruelties, and errors of judgement on both sides. It is aimed at both general readers and to policy makers, academics, and journalists.
