Books Descriptions
From the Iranian hostage crisis through the Gulf War and the bombing of
the World Trade Center, the American news media have portrayed "Islam"
as a monolithic entity, synonymous with terrorism and religious hysteria.
In this classic work, now updated, the author of Culture and Imperialism
reveals the hidden agendas and distortions of fact that underlie even the
most "objective" coverage of the Islamic world.
