description | In this wonderful book, Nelson Tebbe brings principled coherence to legal controversies pitting religious freedom against LGBT rights. Arguing against sceptics who deny that conflicts about religious liberty can be solved by appeal to reason, he boldly seeks to identify a reasoned common ground of substantive agreement. One cannot fail to admire the wide-ranging yet thoughtful way in which he deploys his argument, even though one may doubt whether critics will agree that the deployment of reason—even of the coherentist kind that Tebbe defends—generates only one set of reasonable principles. |
