- Double-weighted statement
- The first scientific monograph on the Kaʿba of Mecca in any language, the book's content is based almost entirely upon primary sources written in multiple languages. These sources number in the many hundreds, as the bibliography attests, and required approximately 6 years of research to collate. Additionally, each of the book's 6 chapters could have been published as a stand-alone journal article with little or no modification.
