Male & Female Circumcision: Among Jews, Christians and Muslims Religious, Medical, Social and Legal Debate (Marco Polo Monographs, 5)

Originally published in Arabic and also translated into French, Dr. Aldeeb now makes his landmark study of male and female circumcision available to an English speaking audience. Dr. Aldeeb is an advocate in the Swiss Institute of Comparative Law and a leading figure in human rights issues. This major work explores the issues of circumcision in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam from religious, legal, medical, and social perspectives. It serves as both a major reference work for the subject and a monumental statement of human rights.
