  • "Muhammad was a tireless campaigner against greed, injustice and arrogance. Uniquely, he recognized that Arabia was at a turning point and that the old way of thinking would no longer suffice. Throughout his life he wore himself out in the creative effort to evolve a different outlook and to bring peace to a war-torn Arabia. We cannot appreciate the full measure of Muhammad's achievements until we realize what he was up against during his life. In Muhammad, Karen Armstrong shows how the events that took place in seventh century Arabia have huge lessons for our time and how this remarkable man and his life can significantly help us to better understand and face the numerous predicaments we face in our world today."
  • "Muhammad was born in 570 CE, and over the following sixty years built a thriving spiritual community, laying the foundations of a religion that changed the course of world history. There is more historical data on his life than on that of the founder of any other major faith, and yet his story is little known. [This] biography of Muhammad will enable readers to understand the true origins and spirituality of a faith that is all too often misrepresented as cruel, intolerant, and inherently violent. An acclaimed authority on religious and spiritual issues, [the author] offers a balanced, in-depth portrait, revealing the man at the heart of Islam by dismantling centuries of misconceptions. [She] demonstrates that Muhammad's life - a pivot point in history - has genuine relevance to the global crises we face today."
