      abstract = {"Islamophobia is the name given to the virulent  anti-Islamic prejudice that has been hyped by the news  media and seized upon by cynical politicians. Five essays  by six specialists on Islam in America provide important  insights into Islamophobia as a conflict over American  identity during a time of crisis. The authors clarify the  way that differences of religion, race, and gender have  been used to portray Muslims as threatening "out-groups,"  just as other minorities (Catholics, Jews, blacks) have  been attacked in the past. The result is a valuable and  thought-provoking analysis of the tactics for denying full  citizenship to a minority religious group."--Publisher's  website.},
