520    "This book explores the myriad interactions between 
       calligraphy and architecture throughout the history of the
       Muslim world. From Spain to China, Islamic architecture 
       and calligraphy are inexorably intertwined. Mosques, 
       dervish lodges, mausolea, libraries, even baths and 
       marketplaces bear masterpieces of calligraphy that rival 
       the most refined books and scrolls. This major reference 
       work focuses on architectural inscriptions throughout the 
       Muslim world, some going back to the Middle Ages, others 
       dating from our own lifetime. What were the purposes of 
       these inscriptions? How do they infuse buildings with 
       culturally specific meanings, sacred or profane? What do 
       they add to architectural design? What sorts of materials 
       were used, and how do they interact with light and space? 
       Who were their patrons, and what do we know about the 
       artists who produced them? You can find out with this 
       exciting new collection written by a stellar cast of 
       international contributors. It features 28 case studies 
       explain different aspects and contexts of calligraphy in 
       Islamic architecture. It is geographically wide-ranging - 
       covers North Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, China 
       and Spain. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to 
       analysing calligraphy as part of its larger spatial-
       architectural context. It is lavishly illustrated with 400
       colour images."
