Title: apologies
Review: An apologetic writing on various negative attitudes of Islam towards the USA. This book was originally written in French translated in English by Pierre Joris and Ann Reid. Joris is a Professor of poetry (avante garde)at the U. of Albany as well as a translator of French, German, English, et al, works. Unfortunately, Joris has used obsolete verbage, so expect to spend hours in the dictionary trying to figure out what Meddeb is really trying to say. No record of who Ann Reid is.Nevertheless, this book tends to excuse various attacks on the USA, justified in that the USA has used it's power (hegemony) to thwart the advancement of the Islamic goals. This has aggravated the Islamic society to the point of 9/11; or, payback for all of the past years we have dissed the believers and the Sacred Scripture for our own progress.It wiil probably be more enlightening to take French lessons and translate the book yourself.
