Title: Patronizing
Review: I found this book to be both patronizing and oversimplistic. I am not an expert on Islam or any religion, but I know that, especially in these times, one cannot afford to make unfounded assumptions about any faith. And perhaps this was the wrong book to read, but I was expecting (hoping for) an academic treatment of the subject -- that is, an account as unbiased as humanly possible. Of course every author is biased. But I did not expect to be so consistently confronted with this bias. I would hope that any book that purports to help you "teach" yourself anything would be honest about the subject and not paint everything up to look perfect. Because a religion can be valid and spiritual and deeply beautiful and still be deeply flawed. God is God, but religion is human. I will look elsewhere for an honest treatment of the subject.
