### ⭐⭐ OK coffee table book
*by J***T on 28 April 2020*

A decent intro but not a good instructional.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful, informative and up to date
*by B***D on 3 September 2022*

I really liked this book. As well as showing the main styles of Arabic calligraphy, there was some useful information about very recent additions to the Arabic alphabet, to enunciate sounds not present in Arabic, like ‘p’. That said, Arabic calligraphy is an art form that demands a large investment of time and, of course, fluency in Arabic. I’m just going to stick to observing and admiring the calligraphy without being able to understand all of it right now. It’s very beautiful, but not for the novice, especially one with poor Arabic skills.
