The Islamic culture that developed in the ninth and tenth centuries AD in what is now Eastern Iran was to have a significant impact on most Muslims of west, south and central Asia. Under the patronage of Persianized Turkic Muslim rulers, the culture spread westward to the Mediterranean and eastward into India. Up to the fifteenth century AD, Turko-Persia represented a distinctive variant of Islamic life and thought in these regions, particularly among the elite, but thereafter regional variants started to emerge. This collection of essays comprises an historical survey of the culture, a chronology of major developments in the region from the rise of the Persian empire before Islam up to the present, and six chapters by eminent authorities on the region, focusing on the importance of literature; the tension between central and peripheral institutions in Turko-Persian societies; and the confrontation of the Turko-Persian Islamicate world with the European world.

As part of regulatory programs such as the new Clean Air Act, industries that emit pollutants from stationary sources are required to monitor these emissions and to keep them within specified limits. A complete guide to the field of Continuous Emission Monitoring (CEM), this guide addresses all current technologies and practices in the monitoring of pollutants emitted from industrial stacks. Taking the viewpoint of both a purchaser of CEM System and inspector/auditor, this book should enable environmental engineers to assess the operating characteristics of commercially available technologies and to evaluate them for specific applications. Extensive examples will aid readers in understanding and performing calculations or reviewing calculations made by others regarding the conversions of instrument data into units of emission standards, performance specifications, F factor calculations, and methods of averaging emissions data. This book should be of interest to civil and environmental engineers.
