Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali


finished in October sometime ... contemp ..... rating 7

This was an okay book. I'm not particularly fond of biographies anyway, and although I sympathize with Ali's situation and applaud her guts, I think she has a rather skewed ideas as a result. I enjoyed her discussion of the impact of the Enlightenment on Western attitudes. I thought she generalized a bit much re Muslim attitudes - kind of like Sam Harris did with Christians in The End of Faith.
