Abu Zayd, Islamic Studies, Leiden University\u003cbr\u003eThis is a solid selection of original articles, including several unique case studies on Muslims and politics in Europe. In contrast to the usual fare, which is all too often a mile wide and an inch deep, these are solid, serious, and provocative pieces that open new vistas of understanding and ask novel questions. This is precisely the collection of new pieces that the informed reader will want in hand as he or she grapples with understanding Political Islam as a transnational phenomenon. -- Augustus Richard Norton, Professor, Boston University\u003cbr\u003e'Presents a unique insight into the relations between political Islam or Islamism in the Muslim world and its links within the western world.
