Riassunto

The Rough Guide Chronicle Islam is a concise history of Islam's fourteen-hundred year evolution, beginning with the Prophet Mohammed and continuing right to the present day. It traces the emergence of a succession of empires in the wake of the Arab conquests, continuing right through to modern-day fundamentalism. Featuring a continuous time-line, in-depth side-bars on Islam's ideas, leaders and other topics, plus dozens of illustrations and quotations, the Rough Guide Chronicle is a vital reference for travellers and students alike.
