This intellectual response, began in the late 1960s and became an important feature of scholarly debates and discussions in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This study attempts a comprehensive review of IOK, discussing the views of its main proponents as well as of its critics and covers issues of definitions, rationale and the Islamization of knowledge process itself. It provides an invaluable reference material for young researchers and scholars wanting to develop contemporary bodies of knowledge from Islamic perspectives. ISBN:9789832957720
