Mullahs on the Mainframe

- Islam and Modernity Among the Daudi Bohras

About Mullahs on the Mainframe

The values of traditionalist Islam are often portrayed as inherently hostile to those of a modern, pluralistic society. This book shatters many of these stereotypes. Jonah Blank provides a first-hand account of the Daudi Bohra to show how a premodern clerical elite has embraced modernity.
