Islamic Fundamentalism is an affirmation of the wisdom of the Quran and the Prophet Muhammad. It describes, however, the dire effects of fundamentalism fed by the frenzy of the ayatollahs of Iran, beginning with Khomeini. "Khomeini's reactionary ideology is based upon ignorance and repression. When struck with the rays of awareness, it melts like snow. the struggle in Iran is between a reactionary distortion of Islam and an Islam that advocates awareness and freedom. in this confrontation, democratic and liberating Islam will doubtless triumph." -Massoud Rajavi, The Iranian Resistanc's Leader (called by Khomeini has "greatest enemy") "The author takes you inside the pillars of Khomeini's rule, inside the 'whys' and 'ways of the export of Islamic fundamentalism, inside the terrorist networks. It is a carefully footnoted book, and a valuable one that can be used well by scholars of the situation and by people who simply want to know more about one of the most important syndromes of our times. I know of no other study like it in terms of depth and interpretation." -from the foreword by Georgie Anne Geyer Nationally Syndicated Columnist

A History of Great Britain has been written many times; and as one new history follows another, doubt is sometimes expressed concerning the need for yet one more. Nevertheless, if new textbooks were never written, both teaching and learning would soon become stereotyped. It is true that the facts remain the same, but the current views about them vary almost from year to year and the educational value, which offers varies from period to period. But the present book narrates the histories on a grand scale, such as those written by Macaulay, Froude, freeman, Gardiner, and Lecky, these, which dealt only with special periods of English History, had comparatively little effect upon textbooks. This book is a work of genius, and still stands unrivalled for its literary beauty, its imaginativeness, its sympathetic rendering of the past.
