Recenzii

“The standard is high and the spread impressive . . . Anyone concerned with Arabia will find things of interest here . . . Though the journal avoids current politics, the contributions are also valuable in following new events.” –Asian Affairs

“It is strongly recommended that anyone interested in Arabia subscribe to this annual volume.” –Yemen Update

“The cement that holds this wonderful, widely diverse collection together is the superb editorial treatment: transliteration and transcription from the Arabic uniformly accurate; the English context soundly standardized and regularized, and the illustrative material clearly reproduced.” –Journal of Semitic Studies, Vol. XLIII, No. 1, Spring 1998
