'In summary, the twelve papers of this volume present new perspectives on the social and cultural history of the Ottoman Middle East. They are quite diverse in methodological approach and subject matter, but as a whole they work surprisingly well together to fulfil what is the main task of this volume: paying tribute to the academic achievement of an outstanding scholar, Amnon Cohen'.
