Well, Dr. Berlinski, you've gone and done it again. I'm not going to be able to join your ME 201 course. One of the reasons I retired five years ago was so I would not have to get up at unreasonable hours like 0430. But I will be doing the readings and otherwise trying to follow along. ME 201 is where I would have started anyway. Dr. Finkel's introduction has already drawn me to the New Cambridge History of Islam https://archive.org/details/TheNewCambridgeHistoryOfIslamVolume1/The_New_Cambridge_History_of_Islam_Volume_1/mode/2up
and down the rabbit holes I go, trying to fill in the enormous gaps in my knowledge. Look forward to new recommendations.
Hi Claire. Thanks! Why don’t you use universal book links for your readings? It’s free and send the user to whatever Amazon store is nearest to them for example I live in the UK so your link sends me to the USA store blah blah blah https://booklinker.com
