Summary
This title provides a lens through which to explore critical questions relating to contemporary religion in public life, and the institutionalization of Islam in particular. Providing a rich description of the personnel, practice, and politics of contemporary Muslim chaplaincy, the authors consider the extent to which Muslim chaplaincy might be distinctive in Britain relative to the work of Muslim chaplains in the USA and other countries.
