Book excerpt: When Speare Morgan unexpectedly arrives outside Irwan's bedroom window, he is mistaken for a dinosaur, which leaves him feeling insulted and Irwan confused. After all, a dragon from the moon, summoned by the mystical music of the wishing box was unheard-of. Yet, although worlds apart, they shared a common wish; that for a best friend. Overnight their lives change, but the fun filled days are suddenly disrupted when Speare Morgan hears the music of the wishing box coming from a distant land. More unsettling is the message carried by the mystical music, 'help me please.' Someone was in trouble and together they set out to investigate. The music leads them to the City of Azra.

Download or read book The Islamic Threat written by John L. Esposito and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-10-07 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are Islam and the West on a collision course? From the Ayatollah Khomeini to Saddam Hussein, the image of Islam as a militant, expansionist, and rabidly anti-American religion has gripped the minds of Western governments and media. But these perceptions, John L. Esposito writes, stem from a long history of mutual distrust, criticism, and condemnation, and are far too simplistic to help us understand one of the most important political issues of our time. In this new edition of The Islamic Threat: Myth or Reality?, Esposito places the challenge of Islam in critical perspective. Exploring the vitality of this religion as a global force and the history of its relations with the West, Esposito demonstrates the diversity of the Islamic resurgence--and the mistakes our analysts make in assuming a hostile, monolithic Islam. This third edition has been expanded to include new material on current affairs in Turkey, Afghanistan, Palestine, and Southeast Asia, as well as a discussion of international terrorism.
