As the leading historian J.M.Roberts put it: “The massive indifference of some civilisations and their lack of curiosity about other worlds is a vast subject. Why, until very recently, did Islamic scholars show no wish to translate Latin or western European texts into Arabic? . . . . It was not just greed which made Europeans feel they could go out and take the world. The love of gain is confined to no particular people or culture."The Curious Civilization."
