At last, a friendly, helpful, and sometimes humorous guide that demystifies Arab, Arab-American, and Muslim cultures.

The author, Nawar Shora, is an Arab American attorney who has served as a senior advisor in the Transportation Security Administration and Department of Homeland Security. Muslims, Arabs, and Arab-Americans is an easy-to-read guide to the life, history, and culture of Arabs, Arab-Americans, and Muslims living in the US and abroad.

Previous editions of the handbook have been used by law enforcement, corporations, and non-profits for staff training. It is the perfect companion for the layperson. Students, teachers, travelers, employers, workers, and neighbors will benefit from this quick and clear introduction to the people and practices of the Arab and Muslim worlds.

"This is the funniest book I’ve ever read! Just kidding. It is, however, very informative and a book that can help bring people together. Give it a read. You’ll be entertained while learning about Arab-Americans. I mean, what’s not funny about that? Okay, fine, it’s not funny! But it’s a great book! Stop reading my quote and buy it!"
—Maz Jobrani, Comedian, Writer, & Actor

Coming soon! Muslims, Arabs, and Arab Americans, a great resource for understanding the Muslim, Arab and Arab American worlds, particularly now. A must read.
"As someone deeply involved in interfaith dialogue and the US/Israel relationship, I quickly became aware of how uniformed and ignorant I was of both the Muslim faith and the Arab-American experience. Muslims, Arabs, and Arab-Americans became my invaluable guide to better understand my Muslim brothers and sisters and highlight the lack of understanding and nuance in my own world view. Thanks to this book, I have grown to become a strong advocate for Muslim Americans fighting Islamophobia and prejudice and now proudly stand shoulder to shoulder with Arab-Americans on many issues. A good book makes you smarter; a great book makes you a better person. I believe Muslims, Arabs, and Arab-Americans has helped me become both and I am very grateful." —Rabbi Victor Urecki Congregation B’nai Jacob, Charleston, West Virginia.
