The Ottoman Empire was one of the most important non-Western states to survive from medieval to modern times, and played a vital role in European and global history. It continues to affect the peoples of the Middle East, the Balkans and central and western Europe to the present day. This new survey examines the major trends during the latter years of the empire; it pays attention to gender issues and to hotly-debated topics such as the treatment of minorities. In this second edition, Donald Quataert has updated his lively and authoritative text, revised the bibliographies, and included brief biographies of major figures on the Byzantines and the post Ottoman Middle East. This accessible narrative is supported by maps, illustrations and genealogical and chronological tables, which will be of help to students and non-specialists alike. It will appeal to anyone interested in the history of the Middle East.… (meer)
Donald Quataert's books and articles have become indispensable for those specializing in the modern history of the Ottoman world. Some of his recent titles include Ottoman Manufacturing In The Age Of The Industrial Revolution (1993) and An Economic and Social History of the Ottoman Empire, 1300-1914 (1994), with Halil Inalcik. The latter book may be considered the best work on the economic history of the Ottoman Empire. His new work is published as part of Cambridge University Press's New Approaches to European History series. Observing the format of this series, Quataert provides a concise but authoritative survey of the most important trends during the later years of the Ottoman Empire, 1700-1922.

In these pages, I have argued that the Ottoman legacy is of a political and social system offering non-national, multi-religious and multi-ethnic forms of organization for a world increasingly divided by nationality, religious belief and ethnicity.
