Volume 2 of The New Cambridge History of Islam is devoted to the
history of the Western Islamic lands from the political
fragmentation of the eleventh century to the beginnings of European
colonialism towards the end of the eighteenth century. The volume
embraces a vast area from al-Andalus and North Africa to Arabia and
the lands of the Ottomans. In the first four sections, scholars -
all leaders in their particular fields - chart the rise and fall,
and explain the political and religious developments, of the
various independent ruling dynasties across the region, including
famously the Almohads, the Fatimids and Mamluks, and, of course,
the Ottomans. The final section of the volume explores the
commonalities and continuities that united these diverse and
geographically disparate communities, through in-depth analyses of
state formation, conversion, taxation, scholarship and the
military.
