America and the Muslim world : building a new way forward.  aA Georgetown University professor and well-known scholar of Islam, Esposito analyzes the current and future practice of Islam in this short but insightful volume. He surveys a number of topics, including identity issues for Muslims living in the West. Esposito highlights the world views of modern Muslim thinkers, such as Tariq Ramadan (Esposito modestly omits mention of his mentorship of some of these scholars). He tackles head-on the myth of Muslim tolerance of 9/11 by pointing to polls showing that the vast majority of Muslims disapproved of the attack and that 358 Muslim employees at the World Trade Center were among the dead. As a senior scientist for Gallup, Esposito has at his command the results of numerous polls of and about Muslims. In this book, he goes beyond the numbers to showcase what Muslims really stand for and want in today's world. Esposito's enthusiasm for his topic makes his book an easy and enlightening read.   aIslamy21st century.928184  aIslam and politicsy21st century.928185  aUnited StatesxRelationsxIslamic countries.928186  aIslamxRelations.928187  aEnglish language.942921  aAyesha Abed LibrarycGeneral Stacks  2ddccBK  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULcGENd2018-09-13eKarim Internationalg1280.00l3m2o297.09051 ESPp3010033767r2026-06-21s2026-06-13t1v1280.00w2018-09-13yBK  00102ddc4070aBRACULbBRACULcGENd2018-09-13eKarim Internationalg1280.00l2m12o297.09051 ESPp3010033768r2026-07-22s2026-07-08t2v1280.00w2018-09-13yBK
