One of the most respected and influential scholars of religious liberty in our time, Douglas Laycock has argued many crucial religious liberty cases in the U.S. appellate courts and Supreme Court. His noteworthy scholarly and popular writings are being collected in four comprehensive volumes under the title Religious Liberty.
This volume gives the big picture of religious liberty in the United States, fitting a vast range of disparate disputes into a coherent pattern -- from public school prayers to private school vouchers to regulation of churches and believers. The author's clear overviews provide the broad, historical, helpful context often lacking in today's press.
