ajiss-1182	Browers, Michaelle	Cosmopolitans and Heretics: New Muslim Intellectuals and the Study of Islam By Carool Kersten (New York: Columbia University Press, 2011. 288 pages.)	2012.0	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1488	55	48	Kersten intends this book to be both an addition to our knowledge of the history of Muslim intellectuals as well as a contribution to the “refash- ioning of Islamic studies as a field of academic investigation and its position vis-à-vis both the study of religions as a generic field and area studies” (p. 6). Kersten argues that these three Islamic thinkers form part of “the first gen- eration of Muslim thinkers reaching intellectual maturity in the postcolonial age” and are “representative of a new type of Muslim intellectual emerging in the 1960s” (p. xiv).	cache/ajiss-1182.pdf	txt/ajiss-1182.txt
