STUDIES IN THE ISLAMIC BUILT ENVIRONMENT

STUDIES IN THE ISLAMIC BUILT ENVIRONMENT deals with some of the most critical aspects of Islamic built environment, such as the relationship between man and the natural environment, the significance and character of Islamic architecture, the mosque institution before, during and after the time of the Prophet (pbuh), Islamic housing, Islamic urbanism, Islamic aesthetics and the relationship between urban and human development in Islam. The prestnt form of the book is its third edition. The difference between this and the two earlier editions is that all the papers have been significantly reviewed and modified-often beyond recognition-in order to present some new research findings and more mature ideas and thoughts, as well as to fill the glaring gaps which the earlier book editions left open. The present book has eleven chapters, three more than the previous editions.
