An English interpretation of the Holy Quran

Anyone with an interest in understanding true Islam, but unable to read Arabic, should try this book. The English translations come very close to the original Arabic text, and are presented side by side. If you are considering conversion to Islam or merely interested in learning more about this often maligned, yet fascinating and increasing important religion, this is an excellent resource. My only disappointment was that the beautiful Arabic calligraphy that so richly adorns the original Quran is not present. On the upside, also not present is the media hype and propaganda that so often, in recent years, tries to blacken the eye of Islam.

God's Crucible: Islam and the Making of Europe, 570-1215

In this panoramic history of Islamic culture in early Europe, a Pulitzer Prize–winning historian reexamines what we once thought we knew. David Levering Lewis's narrative reveals how cosmopolitan, Muslim al-Andalus flourished---a beacon of cooperation and tolerance between Islam, Judaism, and Christianity---while proto-Europe made virtues out of hereditary aristocracy, religious intolerance, perpetual war, and slavery.
