Beschreibung:
Ehsan Masood worked for the journal Nature as a writer from 1995 to 1999 and again as acting chief commissioning editor in 2008/2009. He has also worked as Opinion Editor of New Scientist, and written for Prospect magazine and openDemocracy.net, as well as The Times, The Guardian and Le Monde.
Repackaged as part of the "Icon Science" series, "Science & Islam" presents a fascinating history of the extraordinary Islamic scientific revolution between the 8th-15th centuries. From the development of algebra in the 9th century to the Turkish engineer who innovated, amongst others, the crank and camshaft in the 13th century.
