Ramadan Review

The Christian Science Monitor has a rave review of Tariq Ramadan's Western Muslims and the Future of Islam. Ramadan is the Swiss-born Muslim scholar who was barred without explanation from entering the United States to take up a position as lecturer at Notre-Dame University. The book is currently ranked at 9,333 on Amazon, so it'll be interesting to see if Ramadan's entry ban has any effect on sales.
