'... a good introduction for the reader who is interested in learning about modern Islam and who seeks a serious scholarly treatment of the subject.' Digest of Middle East Studies

Tracing the emergence of modern debates, Daniel Brown assesses the implications of new approaches to the law on contemporary Islamic revivalist movements, and explores the impact of modernity on religious authority generally.
