Max Weber and Islam is a major effort by Islamic-studies specialists to reexamine and appraise Max Weber's perspectives on Islam and its historical development

Western rationalism - nature, of course, and genesis - was Max Weber's dominant historical interest. It was the grand theme of his two world historical studies, Economy and Society and The Economic Ethics of the World Religions. This book presents the systematic analysis and elaboration of Weber's sociology as a developmental history of the West.
