Title: Mighty Guests of the Throne: The Ottoman Sultans
Author: Salih Glen / Translated by Emrah Sahin
ISBN: 978-1935295044
Publisher: Blue Dome Press

 

The Ottoman Dynasty is the one and only dynasty to incessantly rule over an empire for more than six centuries. Of the thirty-six Ottoman Sultans emerged extraordinary commanders, brilliant statesmen, highly talented sportsmen, masterful musicians, distinguished calligraphers, notable poets, and renowned composers. This book illustrates these powerful men not only with their victories on the battlefield and caliphate status, but also with snapshots from their personal lives.

Centuries before better-known researchers such as Roger Bacon, Leonardo da Vinci, and Galileo Galilei were born, Ibn al-Haytham investigated eyesight and the propagation of light in a profound manner, the likes of which had never before been fully utilized, and documented his findings in his magnum opus Book of Optics. By systematically using experiments to test his hypotheses, Ibn al-Haytham changed the course of human history, giving humankind a new and effective way of establishing facts about the natural world―an approach known today as the scientific method.
