Samenvatting

This collection, which grows out of a conference held at the University of Massachusetts in 1988, brings together sixteen previously unpublished essays about the history, organization, challenges, responses, outstanding thinkers, and future prospects of the Muslim community in the US and Canada. Both Muslims and non-Muslims are represented among the contributors, who include such leading Islamic scholars as John Esposito, Frederick Denny, Jane Smith, and John Voll. The essays focus on the manner in which American Muslims adapt their institutions as they become increasingly an indigenous part of America.
