Rating:  Summary: Easy, concise, direct, and brilliantly informative! Review: Spencer and Ali have assembled an informative, well-written and easily accessible guide to understanding how Islam compares to Catholicism. Organized in a question-and-answer format, the text is broken into digestible sections that allow readers to read or re-read areas of particular interest. It is the only guide of its kind to be released in decades and deserves a wide readership. Discerning readers should ignore the smear campaign being conducted by Islamic apologists against this book.

Rating:  Summary: Easy to Read Review: The format of the book as Q& A is easy to read and understand the depth of the content. I recommend the book for everyone who want to know Islam as realy it is
Rating:  Summary: Another Distorted View of Islam Review: This book is another attempt by those who do not grasp the internal meanings of Islam to critique its outer form. If you really want to understand what Islam is about, take it from renouned scholars of Islam, not those who cannot even read the Quran in Arabic. The core of Islam is very beautiful and this book fails to convey this.
Rating:  Summary: You can't rewrite history Review: Where do we start. Anyone can write a book and defame Islam. But when you try to re-interpret history to suit your agenda, the lies tend to become obvious and cast doubt on the entire book. For example, the author would like you to believe that a reason for the crusades was "to free those Christians living under Islamic oppression" (p 119). Really ? Please go back and read some history books and find out for yourself.
