This, and the other half (Islamic Art and Architecture, 650-1250) are really a good and accurate work of the Islamic Art. Very complete, you can easily search art and architecture for geographical region. Very rich text and beautiful coloured illustrations. Think it is very efficient for a beginner and a magnificent work even for those who are into Islamic art and Architecture for a long time.
