What I Believe (Philadelpia)

Deemed a “Muslim Martin Luther” by Paul Donnelly of the Washington Post, Tariq Ramadan is leading scholar of Islam in the Western world. Barred from entering the United States for several years by the Bush administration, Ramadan is a professor of Islamic Studies at Oxford University and author of several books, including Radical Reform and In the Footsteps of the Prophet. “Deliberately brief, sensible, and accessible,” praises Publishers Weekly. “What I Believe is not just a summary of Ramadan’s own views but a primer on modern Western Muslim life.”

Tariq Ramadan will be interviewed by Carlin Romano, critic-at-large for the Chronicle of Higher Education.
