About This Item
Princeton.: Princeton University Press.. Revised edition.. 1991.. xiv + 401pp, index, paperback, good copy. "This book will be immensely helpful to those who wish to orient themselves to what has become a very large body of literature on medieval Islamic history. Combining a bibliographic study with an inquiry into method, it opens with a survey of the principal reference tools available to historians of Islam and a systematic review of the sources they will confront. Problems of method are then examined in a series of chapters, each exploring a broad topic in the social and political history of the Middle East and North Africa betweeen A.D. 600 and 1500."
