Query: What happened to the rest of history?

I don't know how you can write a book on Discovery and the scientific achievements brought on by, and contributing to, discovery without acknowledging the Islamic Civilization which spanned almost a thousand years. The author starts with the Hellenistic period, and in less than one paragraph cites the contribution of Muslim empires as mere translators and preservers of Greek knowledge, and then devotes the rest of the book to European achievement.What happened to the one thousand years of history from the fall of Rome (Rome included much of the Middle East) to the rise of Europe?This type of cursory "brush over" constitutes intellectual dishonesty. For a much better dissertation of Discovery read Toby Huff's Islam, China and the West.
