Radical: My Journey out of Islamist Extremism is a 2012 memoir by the British activist Maajid Nawaz, who is also a former Islamist.

The United States edition contains a preface for American readers and a new, updated epilogue.[3]
Radical was described by The Daily Telegraph as a "horrifying reflection on modern Britain".[4] It was entered for the 2013 Orwell Prize for political writing of outstanding quality.[5] The book has been translated into the Portuguese language and published by Texto.[6] In 2015, the author announced on Twitter that the book was being translated into the Arabic language.[7]
