I know personally with the author of the book of "Islamic Root of Democratic Pluralism," Prof. Abdulaziz Sachedina. I had met him at UVA and discussed a lot about many things relating to Islam, democracy, human rights, peacebuilding, etc. He is one of the prominent moderate Muslim scholars on this earth. His Islamic Root of Democratic Pluralism shows us how sharp his analyzes and understanding on Islamic religion. Based on his analyzes on the works of Shiite and Sunni scholars, he reasserts that Islam is one of the focal resources and one of significant voices for democracy, pluralism, freedom, human rights, and so forth. Politicians, fundamentalist-conservative groups, peacebuilders, conflict resolvers, human right activists, etc need reading this remarkable book.
