Reception

Edward Mortimer, in The New York Times, called the book "an extremely well-written and clear analysis of the issues raised".[1] Other positive reviews appeared in the Library Journal,[2] and the Philadelphia Inquirer.[3] the LA Times,[4]

For François Dupuis-Déri (Columbia University), Pipes book can be understood in the neoconservative idea of the "Clash of Civilizations".[5]

According to Emilie Réné, in Les Cahiers du CERI (CERI is a French public institution in political science), Pipes' essay "suffers from oversimplification".[6]
