There are more Muslims in Indonesia than in any other country; but most people outside the region know little about the nation; much less about the practice of Islam among its diverse peoples or the religion’s influence on the politics of the republic. In this illuminating publication; Robert Pringle explains the advent of Islam in Indonesia; its development; and especially its contemporary circumstances. The author’s incisive writing provides the necessary background and demystifies the spectrum of politically active Muslim groups in Indonesia today.
