 | Unremarkable article in Arab news about vanity exhibition sponsored by one of the princelings. Key point: |
The exhibition portrays the history of science and its evolution and development. The exhibition will also demonstrate what Arabs and Muslims offered in various fields of science. Director of Al-Turath Organization, Dr. Zaher Othman, explained that the exhibition is an opportunity to recall the most important scientific achievements accomplished by Muslim scientists in the fields of observation, measurement, mathematics, experiments, medical treatments, architecture. Dr. Zaher added that the exhibition was launched from Paris and has been organized in several Arab countries. The scientific advances on show were made between the 8th and 15th century. The scientists traveled the world from Baghdad to Samarqand, from Grenada to Cairo and from Damascus to India and other nations. The Arabic language was their common language. In order to highlight the role of these scientists, the science center in France organized "When Science Spoke Arabic" expedition. It demonstrated some of the Arab scientists' contribution to knowledge.| But nothing about why science hasn't spoken Arabic in at least 600 years. |
