Summary
Despite the utopian promises of the EU, conditions are ripe for fulfilling Islamic scholar Bernard Lewis's prediction that in fifty years Europe will be an Islamic society, which is to say Europe will culturally disappear. In this penetrating and provocative book, the classicist Bruce S. Thornton shows how Europe reached this pass and analyzes what Europe's decline means for the United States.
