'Rodinson's subject is enormously difficult, challenging, and, of course, timely. Whether or not one agrees with his interpretation of Muhammad, there can be no doubt that Professor Rodinson's book is the major contemporary Occidental work on the Prophet, and is essential reading.' --Edward W. Said, author of Orientalism and Out of Place
Maxime Rodinson is one of the world's most eminent scholars of Islamic history and society, and was for many years Professor at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes at the Sorbonne. Rodinson's books include Europe and the Mystique of Islam (I.B.Tauris). Muhammad, his most famous work, remains the classic account of the Prophet and of the birth of Islam.
