More than 70 percent of Muslims worldwide practice folk Islam, a syncretistic mix of theologically orthodox Islam and traditional religious beliefs and practices. The Muslim Majority is unlike many published works on evangelism to Muslims, which argue for either apologetic or contextualized “bridge” approaches. These approaches are often ineffective in reaching adherents of popular Islam. Instead, author and missiologist Robin Hadaway outlines a contextual approach that addresses the unique perspective of popular Islam. Hadaway explains the differences between folk Islam and orthodox Islam and explores best practices for reaching the vast majority of Muslims with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Considered the most authoritative single-volume reference work on Islam in the contemporary world, the German-language Der Islam in der Gegenwart, currently in its fifth edition, offers a wealth of authoritative information on the religious, political, social, and cultural life of Islamic nations and of Islamic immigrant communities elsewhere. Now, Cornell University Press is making this invaluable resource accessible to English-language readers. More current than the latest German edition on which it is based, Islam in the World Today covers a comprehensive array of topics in concise essays by some of the world's leading experts on Islam, including: • the history of Islam from the earliest years through the twentieth century, with particular attention to Sunni and Shi'i Islam and Islamic revival movements during the last three centuries; • data on the advance of Islam along with current population statistics; • Muslim ideas on modern economics, on social order, and on attempts to modernize Islamic law (shari'a) and apply it in contemporary Muslim societies; • Islam in diaspora, especially the situation in Europe and America; • secularism, democracy, and human rights; and • women in Islam Twenty-four essays are each devoted to a specific Muslim country or a country with significant Muslim minorities, spanning Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the former Soviet Union. Additional essays illuminate Islamic culture, exploring local traditions; the languages and dialects of Muslim peoples; and art, architecture, and literature. Detailed bibliographies and indexes ensure the book's usefulness as a reference work.

Sudan, the largest country in Africa, has become an increasingly familiar place in the last few years as television screens illustrate the political, economic, and ecological disasters that have overtaken many of its people. The far west and the eastern provinces have been badly hit by thelong drought, while the central area has recently suffered from flooding. Meanwhile, political strife has been steadily tearing the south apart and developments such as rapid urban growth, large-scale population movements, and monetary inflation have led to social unrest. For Sudanese women especially times are changing - and not only to their disadvantage. Everywhere they are becoming more independent and confident and assuming new responsibilities as their menfolk leave to seek work abroad. Susan Kenyon looks at the developments in Sudanese society through the eyes and words of five women from the town of Sennar in Blue Nile Province. They talk about their families and homes, their hopes and aspirations, their work, and their social lives. Their accounts offer insight intocontemporary life in a major developing country and the changing role of women within its society.
