Reviews"Reynolds' book is a lucidly written and unique contribution to the study of Islam.

The extension of his insights to the implications of the material for Muslim discussions about their faith in contemporary times provides a stimulating introduction to the relevance of history to today's world." -- Andrew Rippin "University of Victoria"
