"The Revival of Islam in the Balkans is a timely addition to the literature with its rich insights and innovative, path-breaking studies. ... the book is a must-read, and the exceptional editorial work makes it even more appealing and easy to follow. There is no doubt that this book will be a useful reference work on Islam and Islamic practices in general, and on the Balkans in particular." (Nikos Christofis, LSE Review of Books, blogs.lse.ac.uk, April, 2016) "The book under review The Revival of Islam in the Balkans is thus a welcome exposition of a much neglected subject. ... It will appeal principally to academics and tertiary students, especially those with an interest in anthropology, Eastern Europe, and religion." (Abdullah Drury, Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations, March, 2016) "The Revival of Islam in the Balkans ... offers further analysis of religious changes in the Balkans after communism. These particular studies represent valuable contributions to the subject due to their thorough identification and evaluation of crucial elements that have influenced the contemporary religious scene in the Balkans. ... This volume demonstrates that local Muslim communities have not only been able to reject foreign influences, but also to construct new methods to theoretically and practically defend their traditional practice." (Hazim Fazlic, Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe, Vol. 36 (1), 2016)
