Reviews
'Michael Dols' majestic survey of the place of madness and the madman in Islamic society is a tour de force ... Dols has undertaken a breathtakingly extensive journey through obscure as well as well-known texts in diverse fields.'Newsline, October 1993'impressively wide-ranging monograph ... The range and thoroughness of Dols's Majnun means that his book has permanent value as a chrestomathy.'Times Literary Supplement'The most striking feature of this book is the deep interest of the author to know his unusual subject without passing any judgements himself. The meticulously researched details only serve to make this book a more fascinating read.'Maryam Jameelah, Muslim World Book Review, 15, no. 2, 1995'no one has done a comprehensive study. At long last, Michael Dols has done exactly that and created a magnificent piece of scholarship...this is a major contribution not only to the field of Middle Eastern studies, but also to the field of medical and psychiatric history. It is essential reading for anyone interested in medical or intellectual history.'International Journal of Middle East Studies'anyone who is interested in anthropological, historical or legal aspects of mental illness or deviant behaviour will find the contents extremely interesting. No one with an interest in transcultural psychiatry or Islamic society can find it less than totally fascinating.'British Journal of Medical Psychology'A work of great erudition.'Aziz Al-Azmeh, History Workshop Journal, Vol. 41, '96'he has left an enduring legacy in his study of madness in medieval Islam ... His book will without doubt be the standard work on the subject for years to come. Encyclopaedic in scope, ranging from Galenic medicine to popular beliefs, from prophetic medicine to holy healing, from literary madmen to the cult of saints, it incorporates a wealth of materials from a wide variety of sources ... his book is a pioneering contribution, and its value should not beunderestimated ... the book should be compulsory reading for anyone interested in this fascinating and complex subject.'Julie Scott Meisami, Oriental Institute, Oxford, Journal of Islamic Studies, Vol. 7, 1, Jan '96, 'Michael Dols' majestic survey of the place of madness and the madman in Islamic society is a tour de force ... Dols has undertaken a breathtakingly extensive journey through obscure as well as well-known texts in diverse fields.'Newsline, October 1993
