Taking ʿAbduh to China: Chinese-Egyptian Intellectual Contact in the Early Twentieth Century --List of Contributors --IndexThe second half of the nineteenth century marks a watershed in human history. Railroads linked remote hinterlands with cities; overland and undersea cables connected distant continents. New and accessible print technologies made the wide dissemination of ideas possible; oceangoing steamers carried goods to faraway markets and enabled the greatest long-distance migrations in recorded history. In this volume, leading scholars of the Islamic world recount the enduring consequences these technological, economic, social, and cultural revolutions had on Muslim communities from North Africa to South Asia, the Indian Ocean, and China. Drawing on a multiplicity of approaches and genres, from commodity history to biography to social network theory, the essays in Global Muslims in the Age of Steam and Print offer new and diverse perspectives on a transnational community in an era of global transformation.  Technology -- Islamic countries -- History -- 19th centuryIslamic civilizationHistory19th centuryIslamic countriesTechnology19th centuryElectronic books.Technology -- Islamic countries -- History -- 19th century.Islamic civilizationHistoryTechnology909.09767081909/.09767081Gelvin James L.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGreen Nileedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910453950803321Global Muslims in the Age of Steam and Print2452849UNINA
