SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In this accessibly written history, Amira K. Bennison contradicts the common assumption that Islam somehow interrupted the smooth flow of Western civilization from its Graeco-Roman origins to its more recent European and American manifestations. Instead, she places Islamic civilization in the longer trajectory of Mediterranean civilizations and sees the Abbasid Empire as the inheritor and interpreter of Graeco-Roman traditions.
