Islamic civilisation
by André Miquel
Description
André Miquel, a great specialist, and lover of this extremely rich and complex universe, has written a well-documented and scholarly vision of the multifaceted forms of Islam which is more than ever present at the heart of international political life. He presents, in this now classic work, a global vision of Islam, through a historical, political, economic, cultural, and religious approach spanning fourteen centuries. The author understands Islam as a whole, without omitting the differences and particularities that constitute the very richness of this religion.
Henry Laurens has rewritten and updated the final chapter which considers the orientations of the last decade, in particular the importance of the Middle East conflict and the rise of terrorist activity. A vast updated chronological table completes this essential text.
