For Muslims it is a War within Islam, a Struggle to Rescue Islam’s Central Values from a Small but Virulent Minority

By Michiko Kakutani Rock the Casbah Simon & Schuster, July 2011 Hardcover, 320 pages ISBN-10: 143910316X ISBN-13: 9781439103166 Our Price: $26.99 When the long-time Middle East reporter Robin Wright’s last book, “Dreams and Shadows,” was published in 2008, her assessment — that “a budding culture of change” and empowerment had begun to permeate the region — was greeted as wildly optimistic.
