Synopsis
This edited volume is a compilation of original scholarly papers on the theme of cultural diversity in Islamic thought and practice under conditions of early and late modernity, with a specific contemporary focus on the crisis of religious tolerance in the Muslim world. Particular emphasis is placed upon Islamic concepts of cultural diversity as they contrast to the traditional Western liberal approach that takes a neutral position on tolerance to cultural difference.

Review
The book provides a broad and salutory awareness of Islam's complicated place in history that would serve students well in a variety of disciplines and at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Highly recommended.--Svend White, Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy "MESA Bulletin "
'Cultural Diversity and Islam' raises a crucial question and offers a substantial contribution to the growing interest in Islam and its ability to coexist with other cultural identities.--Mucahit Bilici, University of Michigan "American Journal of Islamic Social Studies "
