In the history of philosophy, few topics are so relevant to today's cultural and political landscape as philosophy in the Islamic world. Yet, this remains one of the lesser-known philosophical traditions. In this Very Short Introduction, Peter Adamson explores the history of philosophy among Muslims, Jews, and Christians living in Islamic lands, from its historical background to thinkers in the twentieth century.

Introducing the main philosophical themes of the Islamic world, Adamson integrates ideas from the Islamic and Abrahamic faiths to consider the broad philosophical questions that continue to invite debate: What is the relationship between reason and religious belief? What is the possibility of proving God's existence? What is the nature of knowledge? Drawing on the most recent research in the field, this book challenges the assumption of the cultural decline of philosophy and science in the Islamic world by demonstrating its rich heritage and overlap with other faiths and philosophies.

Great wallet
Color: Steven Medium Brown, Size: One Size
Great and very durable wallet. They are slim, fit well in a pocket, and are thin, unless you have lots of CC and money in it.

Slim and elegant, beautiful leather
Color: Derrick Brown, Size: One Size
I bought this wallet for my son for his 36th birthday. I love that it is a true Fossil wallet and all that goes with anything that is a Fossil product. Style, masculine elegance, beautiful soft grain leather, and the Fossil logo embedded on the front, right bottom of the billfold. It came in different colors but I chose the soft brown one. This is also very sleek, has plenty of compartments for ID, cash, credit and business cards, and it is RFID blocked. I didn't realize when I purchased this that it is to be worn in the front pocket of the pant. It is a fashion made for men who don't appreciate a wallet in the back. It can be very uncomfortable and someone can easily lift the wallet out of the back pocket...So Fossil is producing this item to wear in the front for easy access and protection. It is small but no less accommodating. I showed it to one of my other son's and he wished I'd get one for him, and he is very fashion-forward, but practical. So I'm very pleased with my purchase although I haven't heard from the birthday boy yet! Also it came in the usual Fossil tin box that all their products are housed in-original with a bit of funk, perfect for any aged man.
