Often criticized as a mass-slaughterer, pillager, and arch-enemy of the faith, Biran shows that his constructive influence upon Islam was also considerable - his legacy apparent in Central Asia even today. Covering Chinggis Khan's early career, his conquests, the enduring power of his descendents, and the numerous ways he is presented in different Muslim contexts, this accessible book provides a fascinating insight into one of the most notorious men in history. 0aGenghis Khan, 1162-1227 0aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 0aIslamic Empire 0aIslamic civilization 0aMongols--Kings and rulers 0aMakers of the muslim world.403Amazon.comuhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1851685022/chopaconline-20  2ddccBK  c15836d15836  001040708NFICaCIPSbCIPScGENd2013-10-02l0o950.21092 BRI 2007pCIPS0001880r2013-12-12w2013-12-12yBK
