"This book is a major contribution to our understanding of what is at stake in current conflicts between the West and Islamist extremism. From a variety of viewpoints - many of them controversial - the contributors to this volume display in equal measure the barriers to, and possibilities for, dialogue. This important book assists us in evaluating where we have been and where we are going." - Jean Bethke Elshtain, author of Sovereignty: God, State and Self (her Gifford Lectures, 2008) "Debating the War of Ideas is a welcome contribution to the raging debate in this country and overseas about the rise of religion as a policy driver in the behavior of states and non-state actors.The book brings together for the first time a collection of essays spanning the entire ideological spectrum among academic experts on the nature of the war of ideas among and between religions and religion-based cultures and offers useful strategies suggestions to our policymakers on how to engage different religions, cultures, and civil society institutions rooted in religion." - Emile Nakhleh, author of A Necessary Engagement: Reinventing America's Relations with the Muslim World
