Silicon Valley Reads 2012
Indian Business and Professional Women (IBPW), in affiliation with Silicon Valley Reads (www.siliconvalleyreads.org) proudly presents our annual book reading event of 2012 at India Community Center.
This year's selection is the novel
The Muslim Next Door by Sumbul Ali-Karamali offers easy-to-understand yet academically sound explanation to the commonly held misconceptions. Written from the point of view of an American Muslim, the book addresses what readers in the Western world are most curious about, beginning with the basics of Islam and how Muslims practice their religion before easing into more complicated issues like jihad, Islamic fundamentalism, and the status of women in Islam.
We are proud to have Ms. Karamali, along with other panelists to be a part of our discussion.
