Islamic law is a phenomenon so different from all other forms of law---notwithstanding, of course, a considerable and inevitable number of coincidences with one or the other of them as far as subject matter and positive enactment are concerned---that its study is indispensable in order to appreciate adequately the full range of possible legal phenomena。

对句子标记后我们可以逐一分析各个成分:
Step1:找主谓
1. 不难发现整个句子的主语就是Islamic law,即伊斯兰法
2. is为整个句子的谓语
3. phenomenon作为整个句子的宾语
从1、2、3我们可以分析出:
1+2+3=句子的主干:伊斯兰的法律是一个法律现象:Islamic law is a phenomenon
9. in order to appreciate adequately the full range of possible legal phenomena。这句话中包含一个倒装,正常语序的appreciate the full range of possible legal phenomena adequately中的副词adequately被提到appreciate的宾语之前。
