A city planner, an architect and a historian trace the urban development of this outstanding city and analyse its architecture in urban and historical contexts from its origins in the pre Islamic period to the situation today. The authors did extensive fieldwork in Bukhara and have published a number of books and many articles on Near Eastern and Persian architecture and urbanism.

Anette Gangler teaches city planning at the University of Stuttgart. Heinz Gaube is professor of Oriental studies at the University of Tübingen.

Attilio Petruccioli was Aga Khan Professor of Islamic Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1994 to 1998; today he teaches at the Politecnico de Bari.
