"Behind the headlines: the religion of Islam in history and present reality" As one of the major world religions, Islam has had an important effect on the development of the modern world. But for most people in the West, Islam is known only through press reports and sound bites on the evening news. In this conversation, we hope to present the world of Islam in such a way as to broaden our understanding of this often misunderstood religion, and to give new insights into a movement that is much in the news these days.
