内容
读者会发现这里的主题大纲，词汇，年表，以及一个有用的英语集中指数（补充“看，也是”）：该指数重定向“盖头”来“面纱”，例如。精湛的编辑（例如，规范字穆罕默德的拼写）平滑几乎350学者的贡献，并保证清晰度尽管信息密度。Coverage of Muslim culture, history, economics, and politics is extensive, from topics such as capitalism, comics, reform, gender, Islamophobia, graffiti, clothing, and writers (Rumi, Salman Rushdie) to entries on Baha’i, Druze, Zoroastrianism, Alawites Judaism and Islam (also Jews, Israel, etc.), and Buddhism and Islam. Articles by different experts on aspects of a single subject (e.g., translation, law, Iran, Salaf ) assure depth and sometimes reflect disagreement (e.g., two brief discussions of homosexuality). There are twice as many images (including numerous maps) as in the first edition, nearly all in full color; with few exceptions (e.g., “oil”), the illustration list is less significant than the index.

内容
The first edition of this encyclopedia was published in 2006, and given the contemporary developments in the Muslim world, this updated edition is much-needed. Some of the more glaring issues with the first edition (such as entries not listed alphabetically and the omission of hijra data) have been fixed. In addition, some entries have been given more logical headings, making it easier for users to find relevant information. Each entry also now has a bibliography, which includes more contemporary references. . . . Recommended for academic and public libraries, particularly as an update to the previous edition.

内容
This encyclopedia of over 540 articles, prepared by over 350 scholars from around the world, explores the religious, social, political, and cultural realms of Islam over the last 14 centuries. There appears to be considerable “evolution” from the 2004 edition. . . . Broad articles exploring art, architecture, and literature exist alongside specialized topics of the Islamic faith and Muslim history. Numerous maps and color photos enhance the work considerably, as do the bibliographies at the end of each article. Students and scholars of the Muslim world will find much useful information here. Academic and public libraries will benefit from having this set, as could high school libraries. Librarians might consider retaining the 2004 volumes as well.
