"The present edition has been revised by the author keeping the architecture student in mind. The main strength of the book lies in its ancillary aids which make the text both student-friendly and easy to comprehend, clinching the high value of the work as an undergraduate textbook. The book contains nearly 70 architectural drawings, close to 200 half-tone plates, and separate maps of eastern and western Islam. In addition, there is a glossary of the architectural terms relevant to the study of Islamic architecture, and an ample bibliography arranged on a chapter-by-chapter basis, supplemented by a bibliography of Islamic texts in translation. Finally, a set of four indices covering architectural terms and features; types of buildings; architects and craftsmen; and (mainly medieval) authors greatly facilitates the use of the book."
