Civilization and Violence

IS ISLAMIC CIVILIZATION VIOLENT? Many in the West believe that  Islam and Muslims are indeed violent. In the Muslim world, this question  itself implies Western prejudice. The answer can only be achieved by comparing various parameters of the violence of "civilizations." In this book, violent conflicts of various "civilizations" of the last two centuries have been      quantified, compared, and analyzed through well-established scientific   principles and presented in layman's terms.

 

Daudi mounts a spirited, logical defense of Islam in the face of Western   propaganda ... (he) approaches Islam as a neutral, methodical observer. Daudi uses statistical terminology and impressively detailed tables to enhance his objectivity. Although Islam and violence may be correlated, he finds no proof of a cause-and-effect connection, and he upholds that hypothesis by listing acts of bloodshed..... his arguments are rational and supported with clearly presented statistics... A dense secular defense that makes  important points about how the West scapegoats Muslims.
