More than 500 articles, 200-5,000 words in length, describe the Islamic world from its known beginnings to the present day. A'Synoptic Outline of Entries' at the beginning of volume one presents a thematic overview of the encyclopedia that facilitates browsing. A glossary of terms and a pronunciation key appear at the end of volume two, followed by genealogies, timelines, and a detailed index.'--'Reference that rocks,' American Libraries, May 2005.
