The purpose of this book is to uncover some of the lost story of Islam''s remarkable achievements and contributions to civilization, including to everything that has come to define the 'West''. It sets out to restore justice to Islam by rejecting conceptions that pit Islam against the West. It promotes Islam as a leader of reform in its own times and therefore as a movement with potential to contribute to the challenging issues of the twenty-first century. The authors represent the bridge between the West and Islam, one born into Western Christendom, the other into Middle Eastern Islam, yet very much of one mind about the overarching and mutually enriching relationship between the West and Islam.
