by By Schwartz, Stephen
Category: History , Middle East , General

Journalist and author Schwartz has worked for the Jewish  Forward  and the Voice of America, and been an interfaith activist in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo as well as writing books on history and culture. He challenges the hegemony of Saudi-backed extremism in the Muslim world, but also rejects the simplistic crusader polemics now so prevalent in western intellectual life.
