Quran Audio Biography
Source (google.com.pk)Lawrence, the author of this Quran biography obviously knows his stuff. But I can't help wondering 'who is this book for'? The history is simple enough that any Muslim would already know it, and yet for those of us not muslim I was left wanting for more information. A short primer on the history of Islam and the Quran. Good for those unfamiliar with Islam but want to learn but people who are already knowledgeable on the subject may want to skip this book. No heavy lifting here.

However since I am a little familiar with the history and contents of the Quran therefore I could understand the views it was trying to give from how the islamic figures use the Quran as a book that co-relates with their thinking.
