The Collected Works on Religious Liberty comprehensively collects
the scholarship, advocacy, and explanatory writings of leading
scholar and lawyer Douglas Laycock, illuminating every major
religious liberty issue from both theoretical and practical
perspectives. / This first volume gives the big picture of
religious liberty in the United States. It fits a vast range of
disparate disputes into a coherent pattern, from public school
prayers to private school vouchers to regulation of churches and
believers. Laycock clearly and carefully explains what the law is
and argues for what the law should be. He also reviews the history
of Western religious liberty from the American founding to
Protestant-Catholic conflict in the nineteenth century, using this
history to cast light on the meaning of our constitutional
guarantees. / Collected Works on Religious Liberty is unique in the
depth and range of its coverage. Laycock helpfully includes both
scholarly articles and key legal documents, and unlike many legal
scholars, explains them clearly and succinctly. All the while, he
maintains a centrist perspective, presenting all sides -- believers
and nonbelievers alike -- fairly.
