Book Review: Salim T. S. Al-Hassani (ed.): 1001 Inventions: Muslim Heritage in Our World​

Picture

Propelled by the desire to reclaim one thousand years of missing history and inspired by a series of fruitful encounters with people who wanted this history to be known to a wider audience, a small team of scholars and researchers led by Salim Al-Hassani, Professor of High Energy Rate Engineering at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST), conceived the idea of recreating inventions and discoveries of that missing period. Their first step was small projects aimed at the reconstruction of machines and inventions of that period and the establishment of the Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilization along with a website (www.MuslimHeritage.com). The next step was a touring exhibition, 1001 Inventions: Discover the Muslim Heritage in our World. This book was produced to accompany the exhibition, along with posters and a teacher’s package.
