'I found this book very worthwhile to read. It has the capacity to dominate thinking in this field as it puts forward a very clear classification and is logically structured...this book really works.'

Sir David Calvert-Smith, former Director of Public Prosecutions; High Court Judge and Chair of the Parole Board for England & Wales 'This is a terrific book which shows how Islam has been hijacked by political Islamism.
