Synopsis
A comprehensive history of Islam and the diverse beliefs and practices of Muslims, written by one of the most eminent historians of Islam working today, Carole Hillenbrand, long acknowledged as a preeminent authority on Islam, has now written a superb introduction to this great world religion, a book that promises to be the most lucid, nuanced text of its kind on the market. Beginning with the life of Muhammad, Hillenbrand firmly establishes in historical and global context the beliefs and ideals of Muslims and the branches and movements within the faith. Rather than portraying Islam as a monolithic entity, Hillenbrand emphasizes its diversity and variety. Featured chapters include, but are not limited to: Law, Diversity, Sufism, Jihad, and Women. Finally, a concluding chapter on Islam in the globalized twenty-first century is bound to appeal to instructors and students alike.

    Excellent quality product at a great value price. Product is in amazing condition and looks just as good, if not better than it did in the post. Product was shipped in a timely manner and packaged very professionally. I would recommend this seller to anyone else looking to buy similar products.

    Fine transaction. Seller shipped promptly and took great care in packaging a fragile item. Unfortunately, the item was received in degraded condition. I contacted the seller and they unhesitatingly committed to a partial refund or return. I suggested an amount for partial refund and they immediately refunded a larger amount than requested. Thank you for honoring a valued ebay platform and moreover, trusting and respecting your customer. I am highly satisfied and will shop here again.
