This book is a biography of Muhammad by author Karen Armstrong. The book gives a comparison between the three major monotheistic religions of Islam, Christianity and Judaism. It also derives relevant examples from Buddhism and Hinduism. It not only speaks about the biography of Muhammad but also discusses the relationships and conflicts between the Western and Islamic world. The book also discusses the effect that the western attitudes have had on the Muslim psyche and attempts to explain the diverse attitudes of many modern Muslims towards the western world today.
