- Constructing the multi-layered transnational history reflected in this book took nearly seven years, including extended fieldwork in the United Kingdom, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. This included locating a large corpus of Arabic-language source materials via libraries, archives and specialist bookshops, and building networks and trust among scholars and students involved in socially sensitive religious activities in all three countries. This complex investigation provided for critical insights into important religious and political dynamics which had previously been the subject of much speculation. This was recognised by an honorable mention in the International Studies Association's Religion and IR Book Award.
