This book is about the epic battle between modernity and militant Islam that is reshaping the Middle East. The author goes inside the militant Islamic movements in ten countries: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Algeria, Libya, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Israel and Iran. She shows that just as there is no unified Arab world, so there is no single Islam. The movements are as different as the countries in which they are rooted.

First Sentence

"ON MY FIRST DAY as Cairo bureau chief of The New York Times in August 1983, I saw a donkey drop dead just outside my office on Kasr el Nil, a major commercial street where smart shoppers, young men on motorbikes and bicycles, donkey carts, taxis, and smoke-belching buses jostle for space on the narrow roadway."
