ajiss-2111	Khan, Shiraz	Islam Today: By Akbar S. Ahmed. London: I.B. Tauris 1998, 272 pp.	1999.0	6	.pdf	application/pdf	2765	80	46	Moreover, the placing of such a controversial issue as that of the harem into historical per- spective is extremely important in tackling one of the most negative images of Islam pvalent in the Western psyche, namely, the sensual depiction and sub- servient status of its women. Although the author admits that this selective dip into Muslim history is simply an “impressionistic view” not restricted by regular chronological sequences, some could argue that these titles only serve to reinforce an already stereotyped image of Islam; however, one must also concede that this style of nar- rative makes sense.	cache/ajiss-2111.pdf	txt/ajiss-2111.txt
