"Saudi Arabia is generally and justifiably viewed as a country with some of the fewest democratic institutions and the weakest traditions of pluralism. It is therefore surprising to learn that at least in one corner of the Saudi world, there can be found a plurality of opinions and lively debate. Jorg Matthias Determann brings this element to light by analysing an important field of cultural activity in Saudi Arabia: historical writing. ..."

"Officials and religious scholars in the Gulf states have repeatedly banned the teaching and researching of the theory of evolution because of its association with atheism. But Jorg Matthias Determann argues here that, despite official prohibition, research on biological evolution has flourished, due in large part to the development of academic and professional networks. This book traces these networks through the history of various bran ..."

"Besides aristocratic links, connections with oil companies were important in
bringing Arabian oryx to Arizona. In 1965, Grimwood noted that British and
American oil companies in Arabia shared information and provided 'practical
help wherever possible'. The Arabian American Oil Company had 'built the crates
and carried out all arrangements for the removal of the oryx from Riyadh'. The
WWF sponsored the further transport of the oryx, ..."

Arabic articles (al-, el-, ath-, etc.). Considering Arabic articles is rather unusual,
but necessary, as articles are sometimes almost unrecognizable to non-
specialists (e.g. in the surnames 'Athopaiti' and 'Almana'). A division between
primary and secondary sources, especially in a historiographical study, is always
somewhat arbitary. Primary sou ..."
