This book fills a void in the study of Muslims in the United States, presenting the first in-depth study of the large Muslim population in Los Angeles County. It examines an array of issues facing the American Muslim population, ranging from gender and ethnicity to political and da 'wa (missionary) activities. This study inquires into the role Muslims see for themselves and their religious tradition in the United States and presents the diverse views of Islam held by Muslims in America today. This work will be of interest to students and scholars of Islamic culture and religion, as well as those interested in the changing face of religion in America.
KAMBIZ GHANEABASSIRI is a doctoral candidate in the Committee on the Study of Religion at Harvard University and a fellow at Harvard's Center for the Study of World Religions (1995 to present). /e
