Architecture of the Islamic World by George Michell
From mosques to markets, from citadels to cemeteries, this text is a survey of the entire field of Islamic architecture. It relates the architecture to the social areas of religion, power structure, commerce and communal life, placing emphasis on function and meaning rather than on style.
