Miniatures: Views of Islamic and Middle Eastern Politics
“[Daniel Pipes] is combative in confronting terror but respectful of Islam as a faith… “Miniatures” is a collection of Pipes’ columns from many venues, published in recent years. They fall into four parts dealing with the war on terrorism, Islam and Muslims, the Arab-Israeli and other conflicts and options for American policy… [T]he author reaffirms his essential thesis that has held true throughout his career: “Today’s international crisis concerns not Islam the religion but militant Islam the ideology”… This volume belongs on the shelf of everyone concerned with Middle Eastern issues.”—Stephen Schwartz,New YorkPost
