Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

A very persuasive argument for the best way to counter jihadism (The Washington Post) from the bestselling author of Zealot and host of Believer The wars in the Middle East have become religious wars in which God is believed to be directly engaged on behalf of one side against the other. The hijackers who attacked America on September 11, 2001, thought they were fighting in the name of God. According to award-winning writer and scholar of religions Reza Aslan, the United States, by infusing the War on Terror with its own religiously polarizing rhetoric, is fighting a similar war--a war that can't be won. Beyond Fundamentalism is both an in-depth study of the ideology fueling militants throughout the Muslim world and an exploration of religious violence in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

How do you win a religious war? By refusing to fight in one.

He is prescriptive and passionate, and his book will make you think.--Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Lion.…
