Description
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis rich book illuminates toleration at a time of fear. Ranging from individual psychology to institutional arrangements, from law to norms, from religion to sexuality, and from West to East, the volume's sharply-etched essays offer guides to vexing challenges posed by human pluralism. -- Ira Katznelson, Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History, Columbia University
