Abstract: In his Oct. 29 Outlook essay, "It took years for Luther's ideas to spread. That's why he succeeded," Jonathan Kay dwelled on the contrasting natures of intellectual discourse in the 16th century and today, advocating the view that relative secrecy may be better for radical ideas in their infancy. In a brave leap, the author commented on the lack of such spaces for nurturing new ideas in the Islamic world and its implications on the process of reformation. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
