A symbol of serenity, a spiritual leader second only to the Pope

The Dalai Lama is the most influential person in the world

He draws crowds that no other spiritual leader or politician could hope to match...he seems to look at life in a different way to everyone else

Eloquent ... Calm and clever reflection

Uniquely insightful

A unique perspective on British multiculturalism

The Enemy Within is vital reading for decision-makers in Whitehall and Fleet Street. It shows that we need more of the quality that terrorists signally lack: empathy with those different from ourselves

A hard headed, well-informed and intellectually coherent analysis of policy towards British Islam. Much of what Baroness Warsi reveals is deeply shocking. Again and again it turns conventional wisdom on its head. It deserves to promote a public debate on this subject which has been needed for more than 20 years

Timely and thoughtful

[Warsi is] a trailblazer ... [She] writes with conviction

Sayeeda Warsi's integrity, intelligence and deep understanding of the challenges confronting the Muslim communities, the government and wider society make this a politically charged and invigorating read. A vital book at a critical time

Sayeeda Warsi traces the recent travails of British Islam through her own remarkable journey from a working-class childhood in Yorkshire to a seat at the Cabinet table. She is an unsparing critic, whether of Muslims who practise intolerance or media-driven politicians who find virtue in "non-engagement". But the conclusion of this thoughtful and passionate book offers hope amid the gloom: with fresh policies and a dash of courage, the beast of division can be starved, and Britain strengthened to make its way in the world

The book is a masterpiece of fine writing and wisdom. It is timely and much needed in rebutting the myths and fears that spread Islamophobia. It reaffirms the values of equal citizenship, free speech and the rule of law in our multicultural society. It is a wake-up call and a manifesto for politicians and media in combatting religious and racial discrimination

Compelling brave and honest

The Enemy Within has a refreshingly balanced approach - constructive critique of Muslim communities and government - and workable recommendations

Engaging , thought provoking and a must read book by a trailblazer
