Stephen P. Blake compares the Islamic concept of time across the empires of the Safavids, Ottomans and Mughals. Each empire created a new temporal system, fashioning a new solar calendar and a new round of rituals and ceremonies from the cultural resources at hand. This book explains the impact of Islamic science on the West.
