Classic central work

Any serious student of the subject should read this work. Scholarship is not meant to be light reading (with nod to the prior viewer), but accurate in the information it conveys. Professor Goiten achieves this and deserves the many accolades he has received from his peers and inheritors in the study of the religious, social, and cultural interactions between Jews and Arabs.
