A Fury For God: The Islamist Attack On America

In A Furry For God, Malise Ruthven, a renowned scholar of Islamic history and Middle Eastern affairs, traces the religious and intellectual back-ground behind the terrorist attacks on the United States. They were carried out, he argues, by men steeped in 'Islamist' ideology: an amalgam of traditional Islamic concepts such as 'jihad' and extremist ideas adapted from European leftism, fascism, and anarchism.
