dc.description	In 1939 the prospect of a war which would involve many Asian nations made me in positions of responsibility in Britain suddenly aware of the meagre number of our experts in Asian languages and cultures. The Scarbrough Commission was set up, and its report led to a great expansion of Oriental and African studies in Britain after the war. In the third decade after 1939 events events are making clear to ever-widening circles of reader the need for something more than a superficial knowledge of non-European cultures. In particular the blossoming into independence of numerous African states, many of which are largely Muslim or have a Muslim head of state, emphasizes the growling political importance of the Islamic world, and , as a result, the desirability of extending and deepening the understanding and appreciation of this great segment of mankind.	en_US
