数千年来，北非和中东地区一直生产刺绣纺织品，用于装饰公共建筑、房屋和动物，也用于为男女老幼制作衣物。刺绣在社区和人民的社会文化生活中扮演着重要角色，并反映了自古以来影响该地区的经济和政治变迁。

《阿拉伯世界刺绣百科全书》是第一部梳理从古埃及到现代刺绣历史的参考著作，并为该地区所有主要刺绣传统提供权威指南。它描绘了从马格里布到海湾国家、从土耳其到苏丹的刺绣多样性；追溯了贸易、商业、政治和宗教对材料、颜色、风格和时尚的影响；本书介绍了刺绣工匠、他们的材料、设备和技法；并着重阐述了刺绣的艺术和设计影响，直至其在现代时装设计师中的应用。

全书配有800余幅精美插图（其中750幅为彩色），涵盖服装、配饰、靠垫、床单、窗帘、地毯和壁挂等，许多图片均为首次发表。这部百科全书是该领域学生和学者的参考资料。

For thousands of years, embroidered textiles have been produced across North Africa and the Middle East to decorate public buildings, homes and animals as well as to clothe men, women and children. They have played an important role in the social and cultural lives of communities and peoples and have reflected the economic and political changes that have affected the region from the earliest times.

The Encyclopedia of Embroidery from the Arab World is the first reference work to chart the history of embroidery from Ancient Egypt to the present day and to offer an authoritative guide to all the major embroidery traditions of the region. It maps the diversity of embroidery from the Maghreb to the Gulf states, from Turkey to Sudan; traces the impact of trade, commerce, politics and religion on materials, colors, styles and fashions; introduces the embroiderers, their materials, equipment and techniques; and highlights the artistic and design influences of embroidery, through to its use by modern fashion designers.

Richly illustrated with over 800 images (750 in colour) of clothes, accessories, cushions, bed linen, curtains, floor coverings and wall hangings, many of which have never been published before, the Encyclopedia is an essential resource for students and scholars of the subject.
