Bettany Hughes’ Comments about  1001 Inventions:
“I have to say that I am absolutely delighted to support the 1001 Inventions Project.” Comments
“…with a project like 1001 Inventions, I think we are going to see a phoenix rise from the ashes.”Endorsements
“The Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation has produced a beautiful catalogue 1001 Inventions: How Muslim Civilisation Shaped The World. It reminds us just how the Middle East, North Africa and Al Andalus catalysed many of the trappings of modern life. An immensely useful corrective to our Greco-Roman-Renaissance sense of Western Civilisation “
