Islam and the West: Reflections From Australia (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780868406794)

The September 11 attacks on the US stunned Australians, as well as people all over the world, and the consequences have been far-reaching for both the West and the Muslim world. The subsequent War on Terror and its extension to Iraq, assaults on Muslims in many Western countries, and the recent bombing in Jakarta have brought to the fore many issues deserving attention and analysis. These include the prospects of conflict and co-operation between the Muslim world and the West - including Australia - and the future of Muslim communities in Australia. Islam and the West addresses these and other issues from a specifically Australian perspective.
