Now, Ali's just-published latest book, Heretic: Why Islam Needs a Reformation Now, takes a surprising turn: As the subtitle makes clear, she argues for a reformation and modernization that will bring Islam into the 21st century.

The last time I debated him three years ago, here in New York, we were debating on Intelligence Squared, "Islam is a religion of peace" and he was saying, Islam is a religion of peace, and I was saying, No, Islam unreformed is not a religion of peace.

I want them to focus on Islam today, because it's in the name of Islam that most lives are taken, that most subjection, most intolerance is spread around the world.
