- W2072936224 abstract "Single volume handbooks and encyclopaedias seem to be popular nowadays based perhaps on the need for libraries to economize and the notion that students prefer a one-stop destination for their learning needs. With such demand (if that is indeed the motivation for this proliferation), comes a requirement for such volumes to fulfil a brief to provide the reader with an adequate introduction and map to guide them through the field. However, the efficacy of that map further requires a clear definition of the landscape—what exactly do we mean by Islamic studies? In what sense, can it be defined as a discipline? How might one problematize the concept? The present volume under review fails to engage with this wider question—it seems to leave such matters to more interesting collections such as Rethinking Islamic Studies (eds. Bruce Lawrence et al., University of South Carolina Press, 2010). The editors and contributors assume that the readers know what is meant by Islamic studies and even to an extent assume knowledge of the contents of their chapters. There is a very brief statement at the beginning of the introduction on the aim of the volume: to provide readers with the state of the art of the field and the issues and developments within it. Given this aim, one finds it hard to discern its success; both the choice of chapters and the contents are far too uneven and elucidatory to further the announced aim. The introduction is in fact a series of paragraph summaries of the chapters and nothing more." @default.
