The Middle East: The Cradle of Civilization synthesizes the latest research and information from a range of disciplines to tell the compelling story, from the Neolithic period through to the Arab conquest, of how a group of linguistically disparate, nomadic tribes responded to specific social, economic and environmental factors to form the world's first complex societies.
This is an authoritative, detailed and accessible story, divided into six easily navigable parts arranged chronologically, and then into chapters exploring the history, religion, political and social organization, art, science and architecture of the peoples of the region. The text is illustrated with more than 500 superb full colour images - artifacts, artworks, statues, reliefs, buildings and landscapes - as well as six detailed maps, which bring the region's dramatic past vividly to life.
Review: 'Expert text, generous design and shrewdly arranged pictures add up to the kind of accessibly erudite package that Thames & Hudson does so peerlessly' - Independent
'Sumptuously produced ... a wonderful and enjoyable home reference and study aid ... Thames & Hudson render a real service to the general public' - Historical Association
'A well-illustrated, informed introduction served in bite-size chunks' - Arab Weekly
'Extraordinarily informative ... a must-read' - Timeless Travels
