520    The invited essays in Heritage and Sustainability in the 
       Islamic Built Environment represent up-to-date research 
       and investigation into the various aspects of heritage and
       sustainability in the Islamic Built environments. They 
       include an analysis of the problems that cities in the 
       Islamic world face as they confront the forces of 
       globalization and new development. The book embraces a 
       wide array of principles, strategies and precedents that 
       are instrumental to the design of cities and communities 
       in Islamic regions in order to sustain their cultural and 
       environmental vitality. The book's contributors also 
       provide the background on Islamic societies that is 
       necessary in order to comprehend their rich architectural 
       heritage and urban form. This richly illustrated book is 
       an important addition to the literature and will be of 
       interest not only to design professionals and students of 
       architecture, but also, given its urbane and jargon-free 
       use of language, could appeal across several disciplines 
       such as urban geography, social sciences, literary studies
       and more. Includes over 100 color photos, as well a black 
       white photos and color and black and white illustrations.
