Abdo, Geneive - No God But God : Egypt and the Triumph of Islam

Oxford, Oxford University Press, 2000. orig. wrappers. 23x15cm, xi,223 pp, PAPERBACK.. Minor rubbing. VG. ¶ Geneive Abdo shows that in Egypt a new type of Islamic revival - a hidden revolution - has been quietly taking shape. Abdo has immersed herself in the lives of ordinary Egyptians, from the street of Cairo to the villages of the countryside. She believes that Egypt offers a new model for the transformation of a secular nation-state to an Islamic one without the violent overthrow of the ruling-power - a transformation Abdo here fully documents. Because the West has been so blinded by a narrow definition of Islam, Abdo argues, it has failed to notice that Egypt is quietly being transformed into an Islamic state - a development that will pose a greater challenge to Western interests than the militant movements now on the decline" - Publisher's description.
