This is the first investigation of one of the main interests of astronomy in Islamic civilization, namely, timekeeping by the sun and stars and the regulation of the astronomically-defined times of Muslim prayer. The study is based on over 500 medieval astronomical manuscripts first identified by the author, now preserved in libraries all over the world and originally from the entire Islamic world from the Maghrib to Central Asia and the Yemen. The materials presented provide new insights into the early development of the prayer ritual in Islam. They also call into question the popular notion that religion could not inspire serious scientific activity. Only one of the hundreds of astronomical tables discussed here was known in medieval Europe, which is one reason why the entire corpus has remained unknown until the present. A second volume, also to be published by Brill, deals with astronomical instruments for timekeeping and other computing devices.

This book represents one of the very first detailed and comprehensive historical treatises on globes terrestrial and celestial in English language since the numerous works published before its appearance tended to give only a very general consideration to the uses of globes, including a reference to their important structural features, and to the problems geographical and astronomical in the solution of which they may be counted of service. The aim of this study was to treat the subject historically, beginning with the earliest references to the belief in a spherical earth and a spherical firmament encircling it, and it was inspired by the author's hope that the preliminary study may lead to a number of independent and thorough investigations of important individual examples, to the end of clearly setting forth their great documentary value._x000D_ Volume 1:_x000D_ Terrestrial Globes in Antiquity_x000D_ Celestial Globes in Antiquity_x000D_ Globes Constructed by the Arabs_x000D_ Terrestrial and Celestial Globes in the Christian Middle Ages_x000D_ Globes Constructed in the Early Years of the Great Geographical Discoveries_x000D_ Globes of the Early Sixteenth Century_x000D_ Globes of the Second Quarter of the Sixteenth Century_x000D_ Globes and Globe Makers of the Third Quarter of the Sixteenth Century_x000D_ Globes and Globe Makers of the Last Quarter of the Sixteenth Century_x000D_ Volume 2:_x000D_ Globes and Globe Makers of the Early Seventeenth Century.
