Provides an overview of the religious diversity of the UK. With examples from the author's own research and professional practice, and referring to other key sources, this textbook takes a "critical incident" and "case-study" based approach to some of the major debates arising from that diversity.

Using the events surrounding "The Satanic Verses" controversy as a starting point, this book offers an examination of the twenty-first century challenges posed by living with radical difference, freedom of expression, and mutual respect. It is of interest to academics, politicians, students, and religious believers.
