  • Arabs and Empires before Islam. Oxford University Press, 2015. 610p. Hardback. This book's title is too modest to give an accurate idea of its contents. In sober fact, it is an absolutely essential vade mecum for anyone seriously interested in the material culture of the Arabs across the Near East before the coming of Islam . . . an encyclopaedia, a mine of curious erudition, a challenge to take the wider view, a reminder that Islam did not come out of nowhere. This is a book to savour, to treasure, and to dip into anytime.
