In the learner-friendly style of the 101 Questions series, John Renard's study of Islam for Christians gives a practical overview of the beliefs and customs of Islam in today's world. Renard's observations on Islam are at once respectful and insightful. He helps the reader to confront biases against Islam and its religious and cultural influence. The gift of Renard's many years of living with Muslims in Arab settings is his ability to relate what seems to be a foreign experience to the everyday life of Americans who are, for the most part, Christians often alarmed by the "political Islam" of the Middle East.
