Francis Robinson charts the dramatic rise, fragmentation, and modern resurgence of the Islamic world, tracing its political empires, trade networks, intellectual traditions, and cultural achievements through richly detailed maps, photographs, and scholarly analysis. The atlas covers the great Muslim empires — the Ottomans, Safavids, and Mughals — alongside the colonial era's profound disruptions and the stirring of modern Islamic identity in the 20th century.\n\nRobinson, a distinguished historian of South Asian Islam at Royal Holloway, University of London, brings both scholarly rigour and narrative clarity to a subject of enduring global significance. The work argues that Islam's vitality cannot be understood in isolation from its geographic diversity and historical adaptability, illustrating how faith, politics, and culture have intertwined across continents and generations. Whether read as a reference work or a narrative history, this atlas leaves the reader with an urgent question: how did a faith born in the Arabian desert come to shape the destinies of billions across the globe?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572594184411,"sku":"2026200018853-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3c092350-9d30-4c48-a71f-431e2862abcf.png?v=1791166875","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200018853-secondhand-atlas-of-the-islamic-world-since-1500","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
