The Force of Reason (Template:Lang-it) is a 2004 book by Italian author Oriana Fallaci. It focuses on criticism of Islam.

In the beginning of the book, Fallaci alludes to Mastro Cecco, the author of a heretical book who was burnt at the stake during the Inquisition in 1327 because of his beliefs. She writes that Europe, like Troy, is "in flames" and, under a Muslim siege, is becoming Eurabia. Fallaci posits that peaceful coexistence with Islamofascism is impossible.

The book was a bestseller in Europe.
