The Qur'an, Orientalism and the Encyclopaedia of the Qur'an

This small book, part of our new Occasional Paper Series, brings into sharp relief established attitudes of Western academia toward the Qur'an, especially as evidenced in the only extant multi-volume reference work on the Qur'an in English?Brill's Encyclopaedia of the Quran. The author exposes layers of centuries-old polemical literature against the Qur'an entrenched in putatively ?rigorous and academic scholarship?, and underscores the need for Muslims to produce an alternate reference work on the Qur'an.
