520 |a [The author] "traces American Muslims' progress from outsiders to natives and from immigrants to citizens. Drawing on the philosophies of Simmel and Heidegger, [he] develops a novel sociological approach and offers insights into the civil rights activities of Muslim Americans, their increasing efforts at interfaith dialogue, and the recent phenomenon of Muslim ethnic comedy. Theoretically sophisticated, [this book] is both a portrait of American Islam and a groundbreaking study of what it means to feel at home."--Provided by publisher.
