Eboo Patel, founder of InterFaith Youth Core and a member of President Barack Obama's Faith Council, is out with a new book titled 'Sacred Ground.'

His book comes out at a time when the world is roiled anew by religious differences: The death of an American ambassador at the hands of violent protesters, fury over an American-made film that denigrates the prophet Mohammed and the eruption of Muslim demonstrations in places like Cairo.

Patel joins The Daily Circuit Monday to discuss his new book.
