Toleration: A Very Short Introduction concisely canvasses the history, development, and contemporary global status of toleration as both a concept and a contested political and legal practice. Although its modern origins lie in the realm of religious dissent, toleration remains one of our most contentious and broad-ranging concepts, invoked in today's debates about race, gender, religion, sexuality, cultural identity, free speech, and civil liberties.
