Encyclopedia of Islam and the Muslim World — Print

"A solid choice for libraries needing a general treatment of Islam in sufficient detail. Summing Up: Recommended."
-- Choice (June 2004)

"This is a scholarly approach for advanced high school students although an excellent social studies teacher will make good use of it in covering current events."
--Reference for Students (www.gale.com) (May 2004)

"The Encyclopedia of Islam and the Muslim World " seeks to contextualize contemporary Islam within the longer history of Islam." As such, it can easily serve as a standard reference source with its scholarly, yet accessible, content. Highly recommended for academic and large public libraries."
-- Booklist (April 2004)

"The reference literature for Islam has long consisted of either a densely academic, multivolume encyclopedia or several, often specialized, single-volume works with brief definitions...As such, it can easily serve as a standard reference source with its scholarly, yet accessible, content. Highly recommended for academic and large print public libraries."
--Booklist (April 2004)

"Highly recommended for academic and public libraries."
--Lawrence Looks at Books on gale.com (April 2004)

"Although this set will benefit primarily high school and college students, it can also serve the broader audience of lay readers. Strongly recommended for both public and academic libraries, as well as specialized collections that focus on religion and theology."
