The text not only covers the conventional dynastic history of the late medieval and modern Islamic world, with glimpses of its art (including political cartoons) and architecture; it also includes chapters on the religious life and social organization of Muslim peoples. The maps and illustrations are excellent, having obviously been chosen with care and integrated with the text. Robinson’s style is lively; his judgment sympathetic and fair. (from Religious Studies Review p.192)

This atlas extends from the time of Muhammad to the 2003 Iraq war. Ninety-four full-color maps and more than fifty pictures of Islamic art and architecture are pulled together by well-informed and relatively brief text (about sixty chapters, most lavishly illustrated, are covered in slightly less than two hundred pages). In addition to broad coverage of Islamic history, the religious diversity among Muslims, and political current flash points, there is attention to the Crusades, European colonialism, mosques in the United States, Islamic arts, and even Muslim cinema and Internet use. (from Currents in Theology and Mission review)
"All the standard historical material is here, plus premodern military recruitment patterns, Muslims in world trade and exploration, Islam beyond the Middle East (including the US and Europe), and the often-overlooked importance of Central Asia, as examples." (from CHOICE review by S. Isaac)
