Great World Religions: Beliefs, Practices and History: Part II—God and His Prophet: The Religion of Islam (1997)
Great World Religions: Beliefs, Practices and History: Part II—God and His Prophet: The Religion of Islam (1997) This 10-lecture Teaching Company program is given by long-time American University at Cairo professor John Theodore Swanson. Professor Swanson, highly knowledgeable on the subject, has geared his lectures on Islam past, present, and future to a Western audience with limited and/or distorted knowledge of Islam. This is a fine counterbalance to the anti-Islam bias that has flourished in portions of the West since the battle of Poitiers and the Crusades. Swanson’s course outline is a handy guide.
