Don’t miss the secondary fine-print title of this book – ‘Why they hate us and how we can change their minds.’  This book is about the why behind Islamic terrorism.

The author, Mark A. Gabriel, PhD, grew up as a devout Muslim in Egypt, earned a doctorate in Islamic history and culture and taught at Al-Azhir University, Cairo, the most prestigious Islamic University in the world.

As a practicing Christian for more than a decade, he has earned a masters degree in world religions and a PhD in Christian education.  In this book, he identifies the five pillars of radical philosophy – the bedrock beliefs that cut through all radical writings. Dr. Gabriel uses the writings of Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahiri and others to show how terrorists justify their actions through the Quran, the life of Muhammad and Islamic history.

The struggle against terrorism may seem to be at a stalemate, but there is hope for the future.
