Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is OUT OF PRINT and a fascinating study of the evolution and proliferation of Islam in the Near East from the time of Mohammed to 1800 written by JONATHAN BERKEY--the book is a First Edition and Fifth Printing and a softcover copy. This book is in SUPERB condition and has very slight dings on the opening tips of the front cover and just slight shelfwear, a bit of slight wrinkling on the upper left portion of the later pages of the book, a few slight scuffs on the page edges and slight shelfwear and very evidence of gentle browsing but NO other significant imperfections! The book is titled The Formation of Islam: Religion and Society in the Near East, 600-1800 and it was written by JONATHAN BERKEY; it was published by Cambridge University Press in 2010 and is a 1st Edition and 5th Printing copy.Jonathan Berkey surveys the religious history of the peoples of the Near East from approximately 600 to 1800 c.e. After examining the religious scene in the Near East in late antiquity, he investigates Islam's first century, the "classical" period from the accession of the Abbasids to the rise of the Buyid amirs. He then traces the emergence of new forms of Islam in the middle period, deftly showing how Islam emerged slowly as part of a prolonged process. A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
