Irshad is a very smart women, she writes well and makes her point very clearly. It's important to undertand this isn't a book againist Islam, this book is againist the damage Muslims have done to Islam. She talks about the trouble with Jihad and the way the Koran is interpreted wrongly, the fact that some leader won't allow Muslims to read the book in any language but arabic, yet only a small number of the world's muslim actually read/speak arabic. It's a very eye opening book and it makes one more aware of the trouble within Islam.
