With his new book author Peter Townsend invites you to accompany him on a journey through the foundational texts of the Muslim religion.

Along the way the following questions will be asked: - Can the traditional Islamic historical accounts be trusted? - Is the Qur'an a 'Perfect Book, Perfectly Preserved'? - Was Muhammad indeed a 'Beautiful Pattern of Conduct'?

Its focus is simply on asking the hard questions about Islam that are all too often ignored or swept under the carpet.
