wayfaring_witch 's review for:

A World Without Islam by Graham E. Fuller
3.0

Fuller's thesis is that without Islam, the world wouldn't be that different. His argument is that a lot of the issues we associate with Islam come from ethnic disputes and political decisions, nothing to do specifically with the existence of the religion.

A well thought out book. At some points it had me engaged, at others not. Some conclusions would be made at the end of the chapter in which I didn't agree the chapter supported. Still, an interesting thought process.

3/5 stars for being interesting and well written, but not quite capturing me.
