From the bestselling author of The Islamist, The House of Islam is a fascinating exploration of the intricacies of Islam and the inner psyche of the Muslim world.

The gulf between Islam and the West is widening. A faith rich with strong values and traditions, observed by nearly two billion people across the world, is seen by the West as something to be feared rather than understood.

Ed Husain expertly and compassionately guides us through the nuances of Islam and its people, contending that the Muslim world need not be a stranger to the West, nor its enemy, but a peaceable ally.

Chaired by the Journalist and Broadcaster, Liz Leonard
