- Cooper, John, The Medieval Nile: Route, navigation and landscape in Islamic Egypt
This is a long-form output whose production has demonstrated sustained research effort. It collects and analyses a large body of novel material gathered over an extended period of time. The book’s clarity belies the complex source and disciplinary bases upon which it is based, which range from the study of medieval Arabic geographies, traveller accounts of the Nile read as literary artefacts, archaeological fieldwork, and meteorological, hydrological and geological studies. The book opens up new fields of endeavour on the basis of this multidisciplinary approach.
