'This book provides a comparative study of three important religious communities and their law in the late antique and medieval Iranian world. The merit of Jany's work is that he is able to see the wider picture and provide an understanding as to how Zoroastrians, Jews and Muslims functioned within and among themselves.' Touraj Daryaee, University of California, Irvine, USA 'In this fascinating new book, Janus Jany presents, as his subtitle suggests, a comparative analyis of the Islamic, Jewish and Zoroastrian judiciary systems... With notes, extensive tables and bibliography, and an excellent index, this work represents a worthy acquisition for libraries with foci on Middle Eastern and/or legal studies.'
