London: Routledge, 1992, 294 pp.	1993.0	8	.pdf	application/pdf	3546	128	48	In chapter four, entitled Studying Islam, Ahmed appreciates post- modernism's broadening of the scholarly discourse on the one hand to ac- commodate a more tolerant and an objective study of Islam. With regatd to the non- Muslim trio of scholatship on Islam, Ahmed feels that while the hostile orientalkt persists and continues to feed the shallow stemtypical negative imptessionS of Islam, there is emerging a new non-Muslim western scholarship that wants to learn, is sympathetic, and can be nutaved via friendship with Muslims and their willingness to leam the nature of media and information.	cache/ajiss-2477.pdf	txt/ajiss-2477.txt
