Islam And The West: Why Do They Hate Us So Much?

The complex and volatile relationship between the Islamic East and the West has been continuing for centuries. In some ways, it changes, but in many others, the conflict stays the same. Islam and the West provides a detailed history of the conflict and the fundamental misunderstandings and assumptions Westerners make about Islam and its followers. Author Wagih H. Makky, PhD, has dedicated his career to analyzing and improving the national security of the United States. As a practicing Muslim who lived much of his adult professional life in America, he is uniquely positioned to give a practical and understandable overview of Western-Islamic relations with emphasis on the United States. His work features a comprehensive, holistic look at the many different facets of the conflict. Makky tackles the deception behind the phrase "Islamic terrorism" and shows the real causes of the violence. By clarifying the relationship between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, he reveals previously unexplored issues and ideas. Makky emphasizes that a peaceful end to the conflict is possible, but that the first step is for the West to know the truth about Islam. The only way to fight prejudice and discrimination is with an open mind and understanding.
