Covering seven universal aspects of life, this richly illustrated volume reveals the profound impact of Muslim scholars and inventors on modern engineering, medicine, and cartography. Highly rated and essential for anyone seeking to understand the true origins of many contemporary innovations. ## Description 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. Review: It's About Time! - It's very refreshing to finally see a work of science and research giving due where it's worth. Muslim contribution to modern sciences and arts has so long been neglected and forgotten that our children have no idea who the real inventors and discoverers are of so many things we use today. Even names of scientists like "Ibn Sina" and "Al-Razi" have been mutated in the English language to "Avicenna" and "Razes", erasing the Arab identity of these great scientists. This book brings back to life a golden era in history - The Middle Ages - that is so very poorly named "The Dark Ages". During this era, scientists and inventors of all faiths living in the Muslim civilization made huge contributions in almost every field of science and art that have a life-altering impact on us today. This book is an eye-opener for both adults and children, and I really believe it should be part of every Middle and High School curriculum. Brilliant illustrations, carefully researched text, a wealth of knowledge. A must-have for every household. I purchased one for my family, and will definitely be giving copies of this book as gifts for some time to come. Review: allah be praised ! 350 pages that package THE WORLD ! I mean, the Arab-Islamic world that is... - so anybody with arab-islam shelf must get it, for it beautifully packages the fascinating world of islam. 350 pages that work very well as intro for this topic, a difficult one, 'cause islam's 14 hundred years (give or take a century or two), well it's huge ! the book organizes all the relevant intro stuff in 350 pages - it's a feat - significant tip of the hat to everybody involved with it: the exhibition of which the book is catalog, the teamwork of historians that wrote the catalog entries, the engineer (arab origin, teaches Ivy League) that was driving force, national geographic the show sponsor and godfather, well just about everything connected with the project, American soil generated bien sûr but international, is of the toppest level. Also: what desertcart carries is a second or third edition of catalog (I'd guess the original would cost you), but at extremely reasonable price. Some will say it's not a book: that it's a huge magazine - it's "just" a catalog (catalog: non-book) - cultural ideology prop stuff - of course they would all be right. but what else does one want these times ? note - praise Allah and grab one quick. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #127,007 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #49 in Engineering Patents & Inventions #140 in History of Engineering & Technology #155 in History of Technology | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 575 Reviews | ## Images ![1001 Inventions: The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Civilization: Official Companion to the 1001 Inventions Exhibition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-3JZOrnML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's About Time! *by L***. on February 17, 2013* It's very refreshing to finally see a work of science and research giving due where it's worth.
