In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

acknowledgments I am grateful for the funding provided by the Center for the Study of law and Religion (CSLR) of Emory University School of Law for the editing of this collection of essays under a major project of the Center that is generously sponsored by the Henry Luce Foundation in New York City. However, this book is published independently by the Human Rights Series of the University of Pennsylvania Press in accordance with their own academic standards and decision-making process, and not under the auspices of the CSLR project. I also wish to express my appreciation to Mr. Simon Kress, Ph.D. Candidate , Department of English, Emory University, assisted by Ms. Andrea Leon Ramirez of Emory University School of Law, for carefully editing these essays and preparing them for publication. My most affectionate and profound appreciation and gratitude is to my wife Sara, Aisha Osman, and to our children, for their patience and unfailing support that sustained me through the years. It is to them that I dedicate my life and all my work. ...
