Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
It can be visualized from Alberuni's account that he was conscious of not allowing a place to any kind of religious enthusiasm bordering on fanaticism and the racial superiority complex in his survey. Due to this character the account of Alberuni has proved to be the best among the records made by any foreigner.
