In a richly narrated historical study, Soufi excavates an Islamic legal culture of critique from the 10th to 13th centuries. Focusing on the practice of munazara (disputation), he explores how and why oral debates became a pervasive and revered part of the intellectual legal landscape of Iraq and Persia.
