Science in Middle Eastern History
In the early centuries of Islam, the study of the natural world was held in high esteem.

Over time, debates arose about the appropriateness of scientific inquiry. This course focuses on scientific knowledge and its applications from the 7th-century rise of Islam to 1600 CE along with their impact on the Western world.
