Siddiqui, Iqtidar Husain

Delhi Sultanate : Urbanization and Social Change / Iqtidar Husain Siddiqui - 2nd Edition - New Delhi, India : Viva Books , 2014. - xii, 250 p. ; 26 cm.

This book examines the Delhi Sultanate (1206–1526 CE) from a social, economic, and cultural perspective rather than focusing only on political history. Siddiqui argues that the growth of cities during the Sultanate period was not driven solely by trade and economic activity; social, cultural, educational, and religious factors also played a major role in urban development.
