I don't own anything from Egypt and I only discuss my hormones while sunbathing on my girlfriend's trampoline or skimming fashion magazines.

REASON,
AND
THE WAR
AGAINST
JIHADISM

I've been trying to finish this book for a month now.  A friend of mine suggested note cards.  I've read Chapter 1 three times.  Personal conflicting forces are keeping me stuck in the mud.  Academically I want to read this book and learn more, my discipline is lacking.  

LIFE AND TEACHING OF THE MASTERS OF THE FAR EAST

Product Details

Interesting but once again I'm having a hard time finishing this book.  It is daunting, I'm only on volume 1 and I have the box set of 6.  I'll update when/if I finish.
