Book Synopsis Building Communities in Gujarāt by : Alka Patel
Book excerpt: This work analyzes the Islamic ritual buildings of western India as innovations of the local architectural tradition. These buildings themselves forged new senses of community, initiating processes of social integration and redefinition among Muslim and non-Muslim groups in the region.
