Islam's Perfect Stranger The Life of Mahmud Muhammad Taha, Muslim Reformer of Sudan
Interviews with Taha's contemporaries show that Taha's ideas were linked to his identity and to his privileged place in Sudan's divided society. Taha's ethnicity, class, studies, professional life and migrations all shaped him - and here Thomas draws upon a diverse range of sources to bring to light the life and ideas of an important Sudanese reformer and leader who has become a symbol of resistance, tolerance and human rights. --Book Jacket.
