Covering Islam: How the Media and the Experts Determine How We See the Rest of the World by Edward W. Said

4.0

This is a good companion to his other work 'Orientalism' as it explores in depth an example of modern day Orientalism which is the relationship between the West and Islam, as Westerners view of Islam is far from what is actually is true, mainly due to outdated stereotypes and archetypes that permeate society.
It is also an interesting exploration of how truth and fact is formed as often it comes from other people and not from an individual finding out things for themselves.
