A vital reference for everyone interested in Islamic inscriptions on buildings, objects and works of art.

This stunning book is an important contribution to a key area of non-western art, being the first reference work on the art of beautiful writing in Arabic script. It includes more than 150 colour illustrations, as well as 100 black-and-white details that highlight the salient features of the individual scripts and hands.
