Book Review

I recently read a beautiful American book called Three Cups of Tea, it is a brilliant non-fiction that fascinated me. If you are interested in Islam, the Middle East, and how education can help a society help itself, this is an excellent book that looks at the issues and misconceptions surrounding the Middle East.

It follows the work of Greg Morrison as he sets up schools in Pakistan, making it highly relevant in to political issues still occurring today. The writing style is detailed and political -sometimes reading like political journalism, and can be hard to follow, but for he most part is a pleasure to read being interesting and often suspenseful in its story. Often it is also emotive as it allows you to sympathise with people we in the western world often have little insight about.

If you do become interested in the politics and work described in the book, donations can also be made to the case.
