Reviews for Islamic Political Ethics: Civil Society, Pluralism, and Conflict
One of Choice's Outstanding Academic Titles for 2003 "While the jihad and civil society material have been covered elsewhere in detail, it is convenient to have these discussions brought together in one volume, and some of the ethical questions in particular break new ground."
