Book Synopsis Taste of Modernity by : Itzchak Weismann
Book excerpt: This study examines the conceptual and social responses among the three consecutive Islamic reform trends of nineteenth-century Damascus - the Naqshbandi order, the Akbarī theosophy, and the Salafī tendency - to the two-fold challenge of modernity: Ottoman state formation and European economic penetration.
