Science in Islamic Countries (Score 1)

Allow me to say---------- To the lack of author's knowledge and peowess , factors that led to the decline of Muslim scientific progress are NOT related to Islam (which was there then as it is present now) but due to the forms of governments and socio-economic and political conditions that flourished in those times. Most of the scientific and other developments and accomplishments were done under monarchies, feudalism and tyrannies. Hitler's regime is a very recent example. The author who claims to be a Muslim and yet puts all the blame on it ought of have gone beyond than his limited and academic study of theoretical physics to dare comment on the achievements or failures of others in Science!
