Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam is often portrayed, especially in Western media, as an alien, violent, hostile, and monolithic religion, whose adherents are intent upon battling nonbelievers throughout the world. Shattering the Myth demonstrates that these conceptions more accurately reflect the bias of Western reporters than they do the realities of contemporary Islam. Westerners are barraged by images of violence that usually originate from armed confrontations in one small corner of the world. Islam, Bruce Lawrence argues, is a complex, international religious system that cannot be reduced to stereotypes. As Lawrence demonstrates, Islam is a religion shaped as much by its own postulates and ethical demands as by the specific circumstances of Muslim people in the modern world. The last two hundred years have brought many challenges for Muslims, from colonial subjugation through sporadic revivalism to elitist reform movements and, most recently, pervasive struggles with fundamentalism. During each period, Muslims have had to address internal tensions, as well as external threats. Today Muslims in the post-colonial era, only some of whom are Arab and living in the Middle East, are playing ever greater roles in economic changes, both regional and international. As the impact of these changes has become evident in societies around the globe, new leaders have come into public view. The most remarkable emerging presence is that of Muslim women. Lawrence argues that it is the experience of Muslim women in particular that calls for a more nuanced understanding of Islam today. It is time, Lawrence believes, to replace inaccurate images of Islam with a recognition of the multifaceted character of this global religion and of its widely diverse adherents. Here he describes changes that are taking place throughout the world, particularly in Southeast Asia, enacted by governments and nongovernmental organizations alike. In a time of rapid international change, Lawrence suggests that it is time for our images of Islam to reflect more clearly the realities of Islam as it is lived. Shattering the Myth provides significant insights into the history of Islam and a greater understanding of the varied experiences of Muslims today. "An informed interpretation of the contemporary Muslim experience . . . Lawrence's explanations for the particular states of affairs in Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, and Malaysia, among other cases, are compelling . . . [A] distinguished contribution."--From the foreword by James Piscatori and Dale F. Eickelman

Book excerpt: Cherr’e Moraga, Migdalia Cruz, Caridad Svich, Josefina Lopez , Edit Villarreal and Diana S‡ena are in the vanguard of contemporary Hispanic women playwrights in the United States. The voices of three generations of Hispanic women are heard in these plays as the women explore their bicultural heritage, articulating what it means to be a Hispanic woman and, in essence, shattering the myths that have been associated with that heritage. The plays of Shattering the Myth illuminate a feminine language rich with texture and character, a language that has far too long been hidden from this countryÕs cultural tapestry. Opening the anthology is an introduction by Linda Feyder which provides background on the playwrights and their works. The plays in the collection were chosen by noted playwright and novelist Denise Ch‡vez.

Part One begins with the seeding of Ruchis passion to find a better way after experiencing her dads cancer journey. Pumpkin seeds, grape juice and hands-on healing were what she came up with at that time. Today, however, there is a wealth of practitioners with expertise in natural medicine and Ruchi tells the tale of how she brought together what was best for her belief system, resources and cancer. She called this the Chemo/Turmeric Dance, traditional and natural medicine stepping a complimentary pathway. Part Two offers an informative guide to what Ruchi considers to be contributory factors towards todays cancer epidemic. These include electromagnetic frequencies, dental practices, radiation, modern farming methods resulting in chemical-laden genetically modified food and environmental chemicals. Valuable information is offered on integrative and alternative cancer clinics and complimentary therapies that can support a return to wellness and reduce side effects, if experiencing traditional medicine. Part Three includes an example of a blueprint for healing and gentle life-affirming techniques to support when putting together a wellness plan. Part Four gives information on scientists, practitioners and authors whose work may be of interest. The journey is different for each person, the alchemy of body chemistry, belief system, hopes, dreams and the cancer call for a potpourri of therapies to support healing. My Angry Breast is a valuable guide offering hope and insight into the cancer experience.
