Evaluation of the Book The author in his introduction sets out the goals of sharing the fascinating Muslim history he has uncovered in his reading and research, a history full of invention, creativity, great ideas, tolerance, and coexistence. This culture seeded the European Renaissance and enabled many aspects of the modern western and global civilization. The impetus for the book came after the September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Center, as the author felt the need at the beginning of the 21st Century to share this forgotten, ignored, misunderstand, suppressed, and even rewritten history with the wider community. The result was the book Lost History, and what a great job the author has done. It is one of the most informative, researched, and relevant books. The author states that the rise of Europe and the decline of the Muslim lands are two sides of the same coin. The author notes that, in the 21st century, for every crisis spot in the Muslim world there is a new and promising centre of innovation in the Muslim community, particularly in Europe and America. The book is well written and also provides maps and images that aid in understanding the message being delivered. They help the reader in creating a mental image of the social conducts, the way of living etc. The author also provides pictures of some early inventions of the Muslim scientists which further aid the reader’s understanding.
