Reviews
Like her original text published in 2000, Alexander's approach and sensitivity toward the endeavour of research permeates this book. With rich and nuanced analysis, the reader is asked to engage with a framing of the key issues that continue to have impact on racialized groups. -- Yunis Alam, Head of Sociology and Criminology, University of Bradford, UK
This book makes an important scholarly contribution to the growing literature on British Muslim Studies. It is one of the few books to use ethnography to offer great insights into the political events surrounding the Muslim Question. And it is the only book which builds on a longitudinal study of British Muslims. -- Shamim Miah, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Education and Community Studies, University of Huddersfield, UK
