Title: Wishful thinking, not scholarship
Review: Armstrong is one of two things: either totally ignorant of her topic; or simply a liar (the term "apologist" being beyond euphemistic). She makes it a point to focus on and exagerrate a few neutral-to-slightly postive aspects of Mohammad's career, while totally overlooking, distilling, and distorting the bulk of his violent and intolerant career---as presented by the most authentic Muslim historical texts and Hadiths. This is not scholarship. Scholarship is supposed to be objective, taking one to wherever the truth is, not where one wants to go.
