Publisher Synopsis
"In this must-read book, the author gives a fascinating and lucid picture of the rapid geoexpansion of the Muslim world, driven by high levels of fertility and a puritanical theology."<br>--Moorthy Muthuswamy, Nuclear physicist and author of Defeating Political Islam: The New Cold War<br><br>"Dr. Vann makes a strong case that secularists and liberals should be concerned about fundamentalism, whether preached by puritan Muslims, Jews, or Christians. Using a thorough review of demographics, he also offers an in-depth view of the potential negative impact of fundamentalist Muslims immigrating to non-Muslim countries."<br>--Edward H. Davis, PhD, Professor of geography, Emory & Henry College Read more...
