"Book Description
Publication Date: September 16, 2012
The book is addressed to Muslims as well as to Westerners to help end the ignorance that so tragically separates the two cultures. Endorsed by Lord Carey of Clifton, the former Archbishop of Canterbury and a leader in the World Faiths Dialogue and the Council of 100 Islamic and Western Leaders; he says the book is "written clearly with sympathy and respect and also with much discernment." Information for the book has been gleaned from many scholars who also have "sympathy and respect for the subject" particularly Professors Timur Kuran, an Islamic scholar and economist, and Leila Ahmed, a scholar of Islam and women's issues.
Certain religious laws, customs, and attitudes place extremely heavy burdens on Muslims and diminish their prosperity and even their health. In discouragement and anger many blame Western nations and call for closer enforcement of Islamic law. Instead, Muslims need a vision of how they can help themselves to prosperity and peace.
The book has interesting information about the founders of Islam and the surprising empowerment of pre- and early Muslim women. Early philosophers and legal scholars are portrayed who accepted the use of logic in studying nature and those later who did not. This coincides with the rise and fall of scientists who made breakthrough advances.
Throughout the book contrasts with Western law and customs clarify both cultures."
Carol's daughter, Gerry, has been a close friend since college days. I was unaware until very recently that Carol had been writing. I don't really know why I should have been surprised, really. Frank, Carol's son and Gerry's brother, is a professional writer. It is a tough gig.
Carol has also written: "The Muslim Economic Trap", and "The Correlation of Government Economic Power with Present Day Terrorism".
If you are interested in economics and the impact of philosophy, you might be interested in this.
I only have the one copy, but if you need more convo me - and I will make arrangements.
The money, naturally, goes to the author - it doesn't stay with me.
