Helpful Score: 1

This book gave me a new insight in the lives of Pakistani people and the Muslim culture. Just to think of the lives that one man has touched is astonishing. I was lucky enough to hear him speak while in the midst of reading the book which made it more special. I can not imagine being unable to read or write like many of the people in this country. While I don't know that education will completely win the war on terror, I am aware that if a person has no other avenue of obtaining information, it is very easy to be persuaded that the U.S. and others are evil. That person has no other way of knowing. Education is a powerful tool that we take for granted. I hope that Mr. Mortensen will continue to have success.

Addendum: This book was also a interesting personal story as well as educational.
