Islamic philosophy has often been treated as mainly of historical interest, belonging to the history of ideas rather than to philosophy.
This volume challenges this belief. The Encyclopaedia of Islamic Philosophy is made up entirely of new essays by a distinguished list of writers. They provide detailed discussions of the most important thinkers and the key concepts in Islamic philosophy, from earliest times right up to the present day, as well as a series of discussions of the cultural and religious background. This book is out of print. A few copies left.
What was the status of science in the world at the dawn of Islam? How were the Persian, Indian, and Greek science and medicine transferred to the Muslim world? What were the contributions of Muslims scientists? What were the distinguishing features of Muslim medicine? How did Muslim science and medicine compare with their counterparts in the 9th through the 13th centuries CE? This book discusses these questions with facts and affirms that Europe owes its science to Islam.

In this book the logical framework of various versions of the cosmological argument for the existqance of God along with their characteristic concomitant critiques is analyzed.
The author explores various dimensions of Islam and studies some of the more hidden aspects of the encounter between Islam, Muslims and modern Western civilization. These encounters are viewed from the perspective of sacred history, viewing events as a continuum of Adamic story. Seen through this prism, the contemporary global conflicts gain a degree of depth that is often lacking in secular approaches. The prism through which contemporary events are seen is constructed by tapping into the primary sources of Islam - the Qur'an and Sunnah - as well as the early history of Muslims and the traditional Islamic view of the cosmos and the human condition. This book builds a compelling case for seeing the contemporary situation as a continuity of an old conflict between those who believe in the Creator and those who do not.
