Examines how Muslim Americans have been participating in their country's cultural, social, religious, and political life. Essential to this process, Timur R. Yuskaev shows, is how the Qur'an has become an evermore deeply American text that speaks to central issues in the lives of American Muslims through the spoken-word interpretations of Muslim preachers, scholars,and activists.
