Publisher Description

It was the first coherent study of 'modern' Islam, explaining in a simple and functional manner its tenets and roots, the diversity of its cultural and political experience, and its dynamism and potential for good in the modern world. This was at a time when the Muslim world was perceived by most people in the west as inert and spent, caught in an irredeemable malaise of its own making. Blunt's attitude, shaped by several factors and sharpened by personal knowledge of important parts of the Muslim world and close association with many leading reformers in it, was unprecedented and startling at the time.

Brad Gillian ,

Nothing groundbreaking now.

Read for a rather Eurocentric view that won't give you much more insight than we already have now. Better to read the writings of the region directly from the authors themselves for a better understanding. If you are new to the subject, it is better to start with a history of the period from the fall of the Ottoman empire onwards to the 30s for better context.
