One of the most important books of the century...

The introduction of the book is an excellent exploration of the conditions into how deceptive information about Islam has come to dominate western discourse. Thoroughly researched and beautifully footnoted. The attention to detail is spectacular. This work builds on that of many of the giants of the counter Jihad movement and they're all named in the bibliography. The language is accessible and open, it begs to be read without skipping detail or useful information. The way in which elites have steadily changed the story on what Islam is as portrayed to ordinary people who shouldn't have to study ancient texts is shocking. While the presentation of Islam has changed from a warlike cult into a peaceful religion, the practice of Islam seems to have, if anything, changed for the worse! The once secularising Turkey has regressed and even today heads more toward Islam based strictly on the life and practices of Mohammed just as become clear in this version of the Koran. The main work is a resetting of the Pickthall translation of the Koran. This is a well respected translation and the translation is beyond reproach. The genius here is resetting it in REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL order and showing clearly which early (usually peaceful) verses are cancelled by later (usually warlike) ones. I've never seen anything this clear. A book like this can't be produced by the mainstream publishing world: but we live in a beautiful era where this kind of knowledge can now be disseminated bypassing the usual gatekeepers. As long as it isn't banned. However, if this book is to be banned as "hate speech" it is an acknowledgement that one of the three primary texts of the Islam is full of hatred for non-Muslims.
