He is coauthor, with Daniel Ali, of Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics (Ascension), and editor of the essay collection The Myth of Islamic Tolerance: How Islamic Law Treats Non-Muslims (Prometheus). His latest book is Stealth Jihad: How Radical Islam is Subverting America without Guns or Bombs.

Please ask Dr Spencer if the present hysteria we are seeing in the islamic world is a result of the fear they have of encroaching western thought in their formerly inviolate enclaves of islam.
