This book, 'Islam Confronts the Atheist West', speaks for itself from its candid title. It delves into the enduring confrontation between Muslims and the West, triggered by the intensified animosity and bias of the latter, which increased after the fall of its strategic adversary: the Soviet-led communist bloc in 1991. While the author chose to diagnose the conflict between Islam and the West, which is a choice open to debate, the relationship is fundamentally between the West and the Islamic nation. If Muslims did not form a nation believing in their religion as a comprehensive system governing their lives, the West would not harness all its resources to oppose a religion confined to mere worship. This is evident in the West's fervent efforts since the events of September 2001—at the very least—to shape a compliant, Westernized Islam as outlined by the RAND Corporation.
