Reviews

[Ahmed Taher]

Poor content and bad writing

[Lubaba]

كتاب جميل, ابتدأ الحديث عن العرب من قبل الاسلام وحتى القرن الحالي؛ متناولًا الفكر الاقتصادي فكل حقبة مع ذكر العوامل وأهم الممارسات والكُتب المؤلفة في الحقبة التي يتناولها

[Naif]

اقترح تغير عنوان الكتاب الى "الموجز في تاريخ الاسلام"

[Shahd Al Haj Ali]

Good but goes into unnecessary details.
