1001 Inventions: The Enduring Legacy Of Muslim Civilisation
1001 Inventions: The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization takes readers on a journey through years of forgotten Islamic history to discover one thousand fascinating scientific and technological inventions still being used throughout the world today. Take a look at all of the discoveries that led to the great technological advances of our time; engineering, early medicinal practices, and the origins of cartography are just a few of the areas explored in this book.
1001 Inventions provides unique insight into a significant time period in Muslim history that has been looked over by much of the world. A time where discoveries were made and inventions were created that have impacted how Western civilization and the rest of the world lives today. The book will cover seven aspects of life relatable to everyone, including home, school, hospital, market, town, world and universe.
The book’s seven chapters are richly illustrated and provide insight
into the everyday life of early Muslim civilisation and the related and
subsequent growth and progress of Western civilisation. There is also an
extensive reference section, a glossary of subjects and people, charts,
timelines and maps illustrating the inventions and contributions,
remarkable photographs, artifacts, historic documents and drawings.
