Examining the conversion journeys of nearly fifty British men of all ages, ethnicities and faiths, this report allows an unprecedented examination of the challenges and concerns facing converts to Islam in the UK today. The landmark report, produced by Cambridge's Centre of Islamic Studies, captures the isolation and dislocation felt by many new converts, and the sense of being a 'minority within a minority' as they adjust to life as a follower of one of the most maligned and misunderstood faiths in the UK.
