Description
Summary:By the new millennium scholars were suggesting that the phrase 'Judeo-Christian' be discarded in favor of the 'Judeo-Christian-Muslim tradition' or, more simply, the 'Abrahamic faiths'.

This book brings together leading scholars from a variety of disciplines to explain the historical roots of these phenomena and assess their impact on modern American society.
