- This book is a descriptive and interpretive account of Islam and of the general history of ideas in the Muslim world. Beginning with a brief historical survey-Muhammad and the Qur'an-the book turns to the prophetic traditions--law, theology, philosophy, mysticism, the sects, education, reform movements--and concludes with a chapter entitled 'Legacy and Prospects'.
