1991.
ix + 377pp, dustjacket. "Central Asia has undergone dramatic material and cultural change in this century. However, the old ways have not been obliterated. in some cases a synthesis has been achieved between old and new, in others the old survives alongside the new. There has been change, but there is also continuity. This collection of nineteen studies by international scholars from a wide variety of disciplines explores themes connected with popular Islam, the role of ritual in family life and linguistic and cultural change." Publisher's description. Some chapter topics include Uighur Literature, Uzbek Poetry, Ritualism of Family Life in Soviet Central Asia, Nomads in Afghan Turkistan, and the Baha'i community of Ashkabad.
