Beverley Milton-Edwards analyzes the roots and emergence of new Islamic movements and the main thinkers that inspired them.
Providing a much-needed historical overview, the main facets of Islamic fundamentalism are put in a global context, with a thematic debate of issues such as:

- secularism and the Islamic reaction
- Islam and violence
- globalization and transnational Islamic movements
- Islam in the wake of 9/11.
For students and anyone interested in the history, effects and consequences of these Islamic movements, Islamic Fundamentalism since 1945 is the book to buy.
