The bulk of the average Westerner’s infinitesimal knowledge of Islam and of Middle Eastern Muslim societies is derived from an image which not only film and television industries portray but also daily and weekly publications as well as the media in general. This knowledge of these Muslim societies which are tribally organized appears to be totally restricted to images of violence and terrorism that we associate with the Middle East.

In David Hart’s view all of this represents the grossest possible misrepresentation. He has singled out a small number of films and works of fiction, directed and written both by Westerners as well as by Muslims. They tend to show tribesmen as one admittedly small but nonetheless striking segment of the overall Middle Eastern Muslim population, in a more favorable light.

Just before the publication of this book David Montgomery Hart (1927-2001) left us. It gives this book a rather sad and nostalgic dimension, because it marks the end of an impressive series of publications on Morocco and the broader Islamic world over a period of nearly half a century.
