Reviews

Olaf Koendgen's A Bibliography of Islamic Criminal Law is remarkably comprehensive, inclusive and committed. It highlights the progress experienced by research in the field during the last decade. The very fact that such a significant number of titles could be gathered together and given a meaningful classification amply illustrates that process. Koendgen provides an essential tool for interested scholars and thereby paves the way for further development and study of Islamic Criminal law. Delfina Serrano, ILC, CSIC, Madrid (Spain) Olaf Koendgen has produced an ambitious and (almost) complete bibliography of Islamic criminal law, listing publications from the early 19th century until now. This bibliography is unique in its size... a monumental academic achievement... an indispensable tool for research on Islamic criminal law. Rudolph Peters, Professor emeritus of Islamic law, University of Amsterdam As the volume of publications on every aspect of Islamic law grows, with contributions worldwide and in many languages, it becomes harder and harder to separate what is relevant and reliable from all the rest - this even for the specialist. Olaf Koendgen's scrupulously assembled work will go far to meet the needs of all interested in Islamic criminal law, whether scholars, students, or researchers. Frank E. Vogel, Harvard Law School (retired)
