Islam and Rationality Conference

The Islam and Rationality: The Impact of al-Ghazali Conference was a smashing success! We are grateful to Professor Georges Tamer for convening such a high-calibur opportunity for scholarly exchange.  Allen Tuazon, graduate student in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures also deserves a huge thanks for being instrumental in pulling it all together.  See paper abstracts here: http://www.islamandrationality.org/about/2011/10/23/conference-abstracts-program-poster.html
