Description
Combining historical narrative with eye-opening on-the-ground research, Meccanomics introduces a Muslim world we've never seen before; one that is being transformed by booming economies and a vibrant middle class that will tip the balance away from extremists. This groundbreaking analysis offers a powerful reassessment of a world where financial might - not fundamentalism - is doing the talking.
