Trade Review
"The publication is an important addition to every library with interests in papyrology, literacy, multilingualism, and manuscripts as both material objects and carriers of religious literature, scientific knowledge, and documentary evidence of administration in Early Islam, with a focus on Egypt." - Alexandros Tsakos, in: Journal of Oriental and African Studies 27 (2018)
