What is The Muslim Community in North America about?

This Book Consists Of Fifteen Studies Addressed To The Relatively Recent Phenomenon Of Muslims Residing In North America, Their Adaptation To An Often Alien Way Of Life, As Well As The Problem The Larger North American Community Faces In Not Only Accepting But Also Benefiting From The Existence Of This New Group. Most Of The Papers Were Presented At A Symposium On Islam In North America, Held At The University Of Alberta From May 27 To 31, 1980. In This Book The Studies Are Grouped Under Six Major Headings: Islam And The Modern World, Muslims In North America: Dynamics Of Growth, Muslim Immigrant Communities: Identity And Adaptation, Islam And The Educational Establishment, Indigenous Muslims, And Statements From Within The Tradition. It Is An Excellent Introduction To A Subject Of Great Interest, Fraught With Problems And Needing Further In-depth Research.
