Conclusion
`a well-written and approachable discussion of some very difficult
questions about freedom of religion and equality before the law ...
The author analyses with exemplary clarity the implications of
numerous awkward cases and judicial opinions from many
quarters.'
Brian Wicker, The Tablet
`a carefully reasoned and clearly written book'
Paul Richardson, Church of England Newspaper
`Equality, Freedom, and Religion is a gently persuasive argument
for greater accommodation of religion, not only of the right to
believe things that the majority disapproves of, but also the right
to manifest those beliefs outside of religious services.'
David McIlroy, Adult Theological Education
`Roger Trigg brings a voice of reason to the analysis of this topic
in an honest, measured discussion of how the competing demands of
democratic values and commitment to religious freedom must be
teased out very carefully.'
Brendan Sweetman, Philosophical Quarterly
