Description
Summary:In 1928, Hasan al-Banna founded the Islamist Muslim Brothers' Society, a religious, political and popular movement in and outside of Egypt which has survived internal conflicts and state repression for seventy years. Arguing that the Society is al-Banna and al-Banna the society, the author attempts to construct al-Banna's "early life in terms of how the psycho-spiritual, political, economic, and socio-cultural roots created the crisis milieu for the incubation of his beliefs".
