    <![CDATA[Heavily illustrated, pocket-sized, and filled with useful  information, Crash Course books make excellent supplements to main textbooks for  students who are taking college-101 humanities courses. They are also  informative and entertaining books for the general reader.   Each Crash Course  volume contains approximately 400 high quality photos and illustrations, most of  them in full color. This handsome volume presents a chronological survey of  Islam, from its founding by Muhammad in the seventh century, AD, to the present.  Emphasized here are the artistic and cultural aspects of Islam, with many color  illustrations showing Islamic art and architecture.]]>

    <![CDATA[This sumptuously illustrated journey through the bazaars in the old Islamic cities of the Orient shows how little they have changed since the Middle Ages. First the origins of the bazaar, its roots in the markets of ancient times, and the early Islamic fortresses and caravanserais are examined. Then the path of goods, carried by the trader's indispensable companion, the camel, is traced along legendary caravan routes like the Silk, Incense, and Amber Roads. After describing the everyday workings of the bazaar, the book focuses on traditional trades and crafts, including gold and sugar traders' markets, and the workshops of lute makers, fabric painters, glassblowers, and coppersmiths. We watch Persian carpet makers, perfumers, miniature painters, and calligraphers at work and meet people whose exotic trades are now dying out: sword, dagger, and fire makers, water sellers, magicians, storytellers, and silk weavers. More than a dozen of the finest and most important bazaars&#151;including Marrakesh, Fez, Damascus, Aleppo, Cairo, Istanbul, Isfahan, Sanaa, and Samarkand&#151;are described in full and illustrated. With its detailed maps and plans, this book is an invaluable source of information for travelers to the Islamic world as well as for anyone intrigued by the &quot;city within a city,&quot; one of the most mysterious and enduring forms of Islamic life.]]>
