Description:
A sequal to the author's Trade and Civilization in the Indian Ocean, this book is a study of the dynamic interaction between economic life, society and civilization in the regions around and beyond the Indian Ocean during the period from the rise of Islam to 1750. It explores how the identity of different Asian civilizations was established and examines the structural features of food habits, clothing, architectural styles and housing. The analysis of the different modes of economic production is followed by a description of the role of crop raising, pastoral nomadism, industrial activities and the history of urbanization for the main regions of the Indian Ocean.
