'An important and well-focused contribution to a pressing academic and policy debate.'
Professor Peter Edge, Oxford Brookes University, UK
'The author tackles one of the hardest and most controversial problems in human rights and equality law. By way of calm, careful and thorough analysis, enhanced by comparative material, she shows that the rigorous application of proportionality's justificatory structure produces balanced solutions which can hope to command a high degree of legitimacy.'
Professor Julian Rivers, University of Bristol Law School, UK
'The legal conflict between freedom of religion and other human rights is one of the most vexed questions of our age. All too often participants in these debates take entrenched positions and talk past each other. Megan Pearson's scholarly and insightful book is not only a timely and comprehensive guide but also points to the nuanced and practical ways in which seemingly irreconcilable arguments can be treated with full respect.'
