Gilles Kepel

Since it seems staggeringly unlikely I'm ever going to write my review of Gilles Kepel's Jihad: The Trail of Political Islam (it's been hanging fire for nine months now), I'll just blog his dialogue with Joan Smith, and his precis of Jihad that lead me to buy the book. (Via the valuable openDemocracy.net.) The dialogue was occasioned by a new book, Bad Moon Rising, but I can't find any indication it's going to be published in the US, which seems odd.
