Trade Review
" The al-Baqara Crescendo provides a sensitive, holistic reading of the text. In addition, it has a feminist dimension, highlighting the Qur?an' s call for people to read the text for themselves and not rely on existing judgments." Raymond Farrin, American University of Kuwait " The al-Baqara Crescendo represents not only a careful and insightful analysis of the sura, but also an aesthetic appreciation of the text. It makes an important and original argument, and represents a subsustantial contribution to Qur?anic studies, particularly to the question of the structure and unity of the long Medinan suras, which has been hotly debated." Devin Stewart, Emory University
