Excellent Source on Islam in Central Asia,
By Haroon Moghul (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: To Moscow, Not Mecca: The Soviet Campaign Against Islam in Central Asia, 1917-1941 (Hardcover)
This region of the world is going to be exceedingly important in the next few decades; new nations, huge reserves of oil, oppressive governments (like the Middle East, supported and armed by the United States), and rising Islamic awareness, which is often forced into fanaticism by governments unable to distinguish between extremism and simple religious revivalism. Thus, Keller's book is an excellent source on the Islamic identity of Central Asia, offering the far more complicated picture that I had not known previous. For those in academia, or simply interested in serious study, the book is well worth it.
