Rebecca Masterton

I am a lecturer in Islamic Studies and culture.

I qualified with a BA in Japanese language and culture; a Masters in East Asian and African Literature and a PhD in Islamic literature of West Africa from the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. In 1999 I converted to Islam. I have fifteen years' experience of giving public lectures on a wide range of social and spiritual subjects, and have produced and presented over a thousand television programmes, and also documentaries. 

This channel discusses Islamic thought and practice. It considers where we stand in today's world and reflects upon secularism and industrialism that today dominate our daily culture. There are also some discussions of book extracts that are relevant to this.
