N2  - This study assesses how Muslims and non-Muslims differ - and do not differ - in the contemporary world. Using rigorous methods and data drawn from around the globe, the text reveals that in some areas Muslims and non-Muslims differ less than is commonly imagined. Muslims are not inclined to favour the fusion of religious and political authority nor are especially prone to mass political violence. Yet there are differences. These include gender inequality, democracy, homicide rates, and class-based inequities
