The Cambridge History of Egypt offers the first comprehensive
English-language treatment of Egyptian history through thirteen
centuries, from the Arab conquest to the present day. The
two-volume survey considers the political, socio-economic, and
cultural history of the world's oldest state, summarizing the
debates and providing insight into current controversies. As
today's Egypt reclaims a leading role in the Islamic, Arab, and
Afro-Asian worlds, the project stands as testimony to its complex
and vibrant past. Volume 2 traces Egypt's modern history from the
Ottoman conquest to the end of the twentieth century. A wide range
of scholars from the humanities and social sciences have been
brought together to explore the history of the period. Their
conclusions reflect the work of traditional scholarship and also
indicate present trends and future directions in historical writing
in Egypt.
