'the most innovative aspect lies in the fact that [she] redefines the struggle in Turkey not as one between Islam and Secularism, but between 'good and bad' Islam. It is a remarkably mature work'. - Professor Erik-Jan Zurcher, Director of the International Institute of Social History (IISH), Amsterdam and Professor of Turkish Studies at the University of Leiden; 'The first extensive scientific account on these decisive years of the formation of the modern Turkish political culture - Islam and Secularism in Turkey is the outcome of a systematic and intelligent exploration of a very wide corpus.' - Hamit Bozarslan, Assistant Professor at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris and Co-director of IISMM (Institut d'Etudes de l'islam et des societes du monde musulman)
