Title: Well researched but not well argued or accurately presented.
Product review: Seyyed Vali Reza Nasr makes an effort to present the life and idealogy of Sayyid Mawdudi but dissapoints by presenting a very unbalanced and bias views on him. He has misinterpreted and misrepresented a number of arguments on Sayyid Mawdudi. He has failed to acknowledge Sayyid Mawdudi's recognition, admiration and acceptance that he had received from the Muslim countries and communities at the time. A simple example would be that the awards, invitations and visits that Mawdudi received and made are not mentioned at all in this book. The book presents a some-what distorted and confused image of Sayyid Mawdudi, which any common reader will fail to rationalize,. Sayyid Mawdudi's contributions and effect in the muslim world are actually absent from the book.
