About this book
Reviews
“A fresh, focused attempt to explore Muslim identities by going beyond old tropes such as ‘diversity’ and ‘extremism’. Mac an Ghaill and Haywood have drawn together writers who understand race and faith in terms of living, changing relationships and who are rethinking the how education is implicated in today’s moral panics over Muslim youth.” (Paul Warmington, Centre for Research in Race and Education, University of Birmingham, UK)

About the editors
Chris Haywood is Senior Lecturer in Media and Cultural Studies at Newcastle University, UK. His main interest is men and masculinities, and he is currently exploring the emergence of new sexual cultures with a particular focus on anonymous sex with strangers. This is part of a broader study on men’s dating practices with a particular focus on mobile dating, online dating and speed dating. Overall, he is interested in pushing the conceptual limits of masculinity models to consider ways of gendering that are not reducible tomasculinity or femininity.
