The Camel and the Wheel(English, Paperback, Bulliet Richard) is written by Bulliet Richard and published by Columbia University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 023107235X (ISBN 10) and 9780231072359 (ISBN 13).
Why, for many centuries, was the wheel abandoned in the Middle East in favor of the camel as a means of transport? This richly illustrated study explains this anomaly. Drawing on archaeology, art, technology, anthropology, linguistics, and camel husbandry, Bulliet explores the implications for the region's economic and social development during the Middle Ages and into modern times.
