Books to share /2: "Islam and Education: the manipulation and misrepresentation of a religion" by Dr Lynn Revell (Trentham Books Ltd., London 2012).*

'Islam and Education' book cover page. Trentham Books Ltd., London 2012.

Islam and Education: the manipulation and misrepresentation of a religion by Dr Lynn Revell is an essential reading and much needed review of how Islam is taught and represented through the current Religious Education (RE) curriculum in Great Britain.

Islam has had an increasing presence in British and European public life through media and political narratives and events, especially in the last ten years after the 9/11 and 7/7 terrorist attacks. In this context, it is important to reflect on how current practices and strategies of RE engage with and represent the realities of Islam in a global context and UK Muslims communities.
