One reason may be that, for more than half a century, there has been no up-to-date single volume work that chronicles the story of Arab civilization - until now. Albert Hourani, distinguished historian and interpreter, has written a masterwork, a panoramic view encompassing twelve centuries of Arab history and culture. He looks at all sides of this rich and venerable civilization: the beauty of the Alhambra and the great mosques, the importance attached to education, the achievements of Arab science - but also internal conflicts, wide-spread poverty, the role of women, and the contemporary Palestinian question.  aCivilization  aHistory  aArabian Peninsula4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/15128/7.jpgyCover Image  aHuỳnh Thị Ngọc Bích  a240730 TBN  c14979d14979  00104070aTVCDbTVCDd2026-01-20g0.00l0pTVCD-14979v0.00yBK
