Contents Introduction -- Regarding the West -- Acting -- Being regarded.
Summary Scroggins illuminates not only the disconnect between the West's often one-dimensional perception of Islam and its multifaceted reality but the schisms within Islam itself through the "weird symmetry" in the lives of two women--Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Aafia Siddiqui.
Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 472-518) and index.
