Publisher Description
RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM deals with one of the most immediate and troubling issues of our time. It explores subjects such as: possible links between religious extremism and terrorism; the part religious extremism plays in dangerous cults; and the role of international relations and politics in causing religious extremism. The VOICES series brings alive a range of modern-day issues - many of them highly controversial - and aims to stimulate debate and discussion. Firsthand quotes from young people and figures in authority present often opposing views, and offer a global perspective on a wide variety of questions relating to each topic. Summaries of statistics complement the text and provide further food for thought.
