Volume One of The New Cambridge History of Islam, which surveys the
political and cultural history of Islam from its Late Antique
origins until the eleventh century, brings together contributions
from leading scholars in the field. The book is divided into four
parts. The first provides an overview of the physical and political
geography of the Late Antique Middle East. The second charts the
rise of Islam and the emergence of the Islamic political order
under the Umayyad and the Abbasid caliphs of the seventh, eighth
and ninth centuries, followed by the dissolution of the empire in
the tenth and eleventh. 'Regionalism', the overlapping histories of
the empire's provinces, is the focus of Part Three, while Part Four
provides a cutting-edge discussion of the sources and controversies
of early Islamic history, including a survey of numismatics,
archaeology and material culture.
