A REAL book from 1932 & NOT some sleazy post-modern pirate done up in some cheesy & HOW!) half-tone letterpress! The author of _The Muslim Creed_, A J Wensinck (1882-1939), was a Dutch Semiticist, historian of Syriac mystical theology, and Islamicist. Arent Jan Wensinck, born in Aarlanderveen, the Netherlands, began his scholarly career with a year's study of theology in Utrecht. He then changed to Semitic studies, including Arabic, working first in Utrecht under M. T. Houtsma (1850-1943) and then in Leiden under M. J. de Goeje (1835-1909) and Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje (1857-1936). He obtained his doctorate at the University of Leiden in 1908 and subsequently became privatdocent for Syriac and Aramaic at the University of Utrecht. In 1908 he became secretary of The Encyclopaedia of Islam.
