I am very pleased to announce that Gregor Schwarb has been appointed as the new Chief Editor for Index Islamicus. Gregor Schwarb studied Theology, Philosophy, Jewish and Islamic Studies in Fribourg (CH), Jerusalem and Damascus.
He is a scholar of medieval intellectual history of the Islamic world, with a strong interest in interdisciplinary studies. He has already started work in the London office at SOAS Library and will take over from me in January 2016. I shall continue to be associated with the project on a part-time basis as a member of the team.
