Young Pakistanis in Britain today live in a world of diverse traditions. This volume explores the complex interrelationship that exists between the different ethnic, national and religious identities of Islam.

Recenzje

'The rich human texture which characterises the book combines with a lack of technicality to provide an eminently readable and sympathetic account ... This is a admirable account of one of the most important cultural transformations in modern Britain, and deserves to be widley read' - Tim Winter, World Faiths Encounter
