European Experts Urge Reviewing Schoolbooks on Islam
Europe should review its schoolbooks on Islam as a good start for introducing the true image of the Muslims' religion, European experts recommended on Sunday, December 12. "A lot of factual mistakes, misleading perceptions are prevalent in schoolbooks in Europe all over the past years, we have to admit," Wolfgang Hoepken, the director of Germany-based Georg Exkert Institute, told a three-day Euro-Arab Dialogue conference that opened here earlier in the day.
