Book Description:

The refusal of a Muslim basketball player to stand for the US national anthem in 1996, and the ensuing Islamophobic outcry, sparked Abou El Fadl (law, U. of California-Los Angeles) to write his historical and philosophical treatise, published in 1997 and subsequently in both English and Arabic. It has generated little attention but much controversy, especially among Muslims. It is enlarged here. c. Book News Inc.
