'Muslims in Scotland looks beyond the statistics and sensationalism to offer us a deeper understanding of the individual lives of Muslims, as well as their contribution to Scottish society. Bonino’s book paints a clear narrative of the lives of Scottish Muslims – from the first records to the current headlines. Despite offering an in depth and academic insight into Islamic integration both pre and post 9/11, the book itself is easy read and peppered with individual accounts and everyday experiences.'
