Faith and Law : how religious traditions from Calvinism to Islam view American law
Features legal scholars from sixteen different religious traditions who contend that religious discourse has an important function in the making, practice, and adjudication of American law, not least because our laws rest upon a framework of religious values. This book also includes topics such as abortion, gay rights, euthanasia, and free speech.
