'...fascinating insights into one of the most fundamental issues facing our world today...a challenge to anyone with an intelligent interest in the subject of law and religion, particularly to practitioners in the law and to those responsible for framing legislation...reading these essays will certainly make the reader better informed and I think the standard of the analysis in the essays is such as to make the reader also wiser in connection with these topics.' The Right Hon. Lord Mackay of Clashfern '...a very important book. What is impressive in this particular work is the uniform consistency of quality in all of its content, a characteristic that is notably lacking in many collections of solicited articles...a very accomplished aggregate of inspiring ideas on a theme deserving of serious attention.' Modern Law Review '...constitutes an excellent addition to the existing literature in this increasingly important area of law.' Singapore Journal of Legal Studies '...a stimulating mix of disciplines and approaches...This collection will be of considerable interest to those concerned with the interaction of law and religion in the United Kingdom jurisdictions, and is highly recommended.' Ecclesiastical Law Journal '...this book is one that serious thinkers about law and religion should read.' The Christian Lawyer '...a valuable contribution to the effort to bring a broader range of insights and experience to bear on the problems of religious freedom.' Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law '...an interesting sourcebook for the current debates on the position of law and religion at the beginning of the 21st century.' European Human Rights Law Review
