Reviews

A standard work in the field. An essential reference work for any student of Islamic literature and scholarship. The range of Arabic literature that he covers is overwhelming ... in the space of a review justice cannot be done to the richness of Makdisi's studies and to his thinking, the work of his professional lifetime.
