Description: The Muslim Next Door clears away misconceptions about Islam and why they flourish - media distortion, confusion about what is cultural rather than religious, the language barrier, and the old tales that still persist after thirteen centuries. Conveyed through anecdotes and stories about growing up Muslim and female in the West, she answers many of the questions westerners want to know.
