Author: Luqman Nagy
Publisher: International Islamic Publishing House IIPH
Binding: Hardcover Description from the publisher:

This book; authored by Luqman Nagy; is an introduction to the history and legacy of the great translation movement that began at the Bayt al-Hikmah in ninth century Abbasid Baghdad and culminated centuries later in Spain; with teams of Muslim; Christian and Jewish scholars translating works of Greek and Islamic science from Arabic into Latin. These translations became the first scientific textbooks to be used at many European universities. This wealth of knowledge that was made available in Latin helped initiate the Renaissance; or ‘rebirth' of learning in the West.
