This introduction to the archaeology of the Islamic world traces the history of the discipline from its earliest manifestations through to the present and evaluates the contribution made by archaeology to the understanding of key aspects of Islamic culture. The author argues that it is essential for the results of archaeological research to be more fully integrated into the wider historical study of the Islamic world. His organisation of the book into broad themes allows a focus on issues that are relevant across different regions and periods; and the broad geographical scope reflects the main focus of archaeological work in the Islamic world to the present day.

Great for Asian American ClassBy JBThis book is a great detailed look at the fastest growing minority in the United States. It gives important information and facts that students need to know about Asian American Politics. It goes over the pluses and minuses the APA 80-20 movement and other political movements. I use it along with Ancheta's book in my Asian American Experience class.
