Combining political commentary with literary criticism, Edward Said reveals the hidden assumptions and distortions of fact that underlie even the most "objective" coverage of the Islamic world. In so doing, Covering Islam continues Said's lifelong investigation of the ways in which language not only describes but also defines political reality."--BOOK JACKET. 0aIslamxPublic opinion. 0aPublic opinionzUnited States. 0aPublic opinionzEurope.  2ddccBK  c196003d196003  00102ddc406909_090000000000000_SAC718NFIC9333187aDULbDULcAACd2017-05-14eGifto909.09 SACp427030r2017-05-14t2w2017-05-14yBK
