Good question, Reg. And, as the devoted Sam Harris fan that I am, I'll offer up Sam's latest book, "Islam and The Future of Tolerance". This 128 page book, co-written with Maajid Nawaz (a former Islamist turned Muslim reformer) is basically a candid conversation between the two men. They raise a host of issues relevant to the unique threat posed by Islam and agree that it needs a reformation, just as Christianity and Judaism experienced. This threat is going to be with us for decades to come and this book is a great introduction to the complexities of the issue. We need more Muslims like Maajid Nawaz to raise their voices, just as we need more former Muslims like Ayaan Hirsi Ali to speak plain truths about what is in the Qur'an and the hadith.

Here's an hour well spent with these two men:
