This collection of essays focusing on three domains of Islamic intellectual literature --philosophy, theology, and mysticism emphasizes the beauty of the original theoretical contributions of Islamic thought. Too often, Islamic philosophy is viewed as the product of foreign influences, in contradiction to the factual history of the culture.  By embracing a methodology that underplays the role of cultural contexts in the development of ideas in favor of a technical analysis of arguments embedded in the primary texts, the author avoids a reductionalist approach.

World-wide processes of capital transformation bring us face to face with a string of apparently connected questions, which should be regarded precisely in terms of what links them together internally. For example, technology shows its ambiguous character as soon as we realize that it implies a diversity of time horizons. Although an increasing world-wide force is bringing the word together into communications and economic unity, it does not acknowledge the vital social and cultural fact that the historical space and social time of different societies are in no way united. What is the state of the game in Croatia, a pivotal European observational post and laboratory for processes that extend beyond its borders? - Is it not a curious question
