| Kurzbeschreibung
Sufism: A Global History is a unique account of global Sufism, tracing the gradual spread and adaptation of Sufi Islam through the Middle East into Central Asia, India, Southeast Asia, Africa, and in the 20th century Europe and America. The book goes beyond the description of doctrine and places Sufism in its social, cultural and historical context. Engagingly and lucidly written, Sufism: A Global History represents the first worldwide account of the history of Sufism, showing how it shaped societies and cultures in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and ultimately Europe and the United States.
