The UN Migration Agency reports that 9,286 migrants and refugees have entered Europe by sea through the first 62 days of 2019, a 10% decrease on the same period in 2018. Tragically, 226 people died making the journey on the three main Mediterranean Sea routes already this year.

This new book, 'Islam: An Illustrated Journey' looks really great. Too often, we teach about religion as a set of ideas, ignoring the way it is embodied and expressed in human lives, especially in art. iis.ac.uk/video/islam-il…
