Reviews:
-[A] book with the tripartite title Modernization, Democracy, and Islam may be said to cover all bases, and it does just that. The quality articles treat such diverse subjects as the econometric dimension, the role of the military, comparisons between the Middle East and Latin America, and gender inequality. —Foreign Affairs
-Recommended. General readers, secondary school students, and lower-division undergraduates. —Choice
