Abstract

This book is particularly special and valuable due to the fact that it raises some issues of Islamic civilization in terms of historical, cultural and national self-conciousness. It treats each aspect of Islamic civilization not as a showpiece of a world history museum, but as a substantial aspect of itself. Hence entwinement of theological, historical and philosophical levels in examining and perceiving Islamic civilization as a model of self-understanding in terms of modern Iranian thought.

The books includes a number of research works devoted to two aspects: creative cognitive spirit of Islamic civilization and problems of civilization alternatives.
