Very good/Very good. 127, [9] pages. Illustrations. Tables, Exhibits and figures. Notes. Bibliography. Mostly in English but there are several pages in Arabic at the back. Inscribed and dated by the author on fep. Adnan A. Al-Yafi, former Deputy Director-General and Assistant Professor at the Hajj Research Centre, was born in 1950. He was awarded his Bachelor's degree in 1973 and his Master of Business Administration in 1977 from Saint Edward's University, Austin, Texas. In 1983, he received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Texas. In 1978, he was appointed a Research Assistant at the Hajj Research Centre and in 1984 was appointed Assistant Professor. Dr. AI-Yafi has made many significant contributions in the field of Hajj research particularly in the areas of movement and traffic analysis, land use and pilgrim accommodation, overall statistics and forecasting, socioeconomic profiles of pilgrims and detailed studies of ritual activities such as lapidation and animal sacrifice. Dr. Al-Yafi has represented the Hajj Research Centre in many official and executive committees and has participated in several conferences and seminars which focused on the application of modern technology and logistical management techniques in the analysis of Hajj research. The annual Islamic pilgrimage (the Hajj) to Makkah in Saudi Arabia is undoubtedly the largest annually recurring mass confluence of people in the world. Peaking in a four-day period in several Holy Sites in and near the city of Makkah, the Hajj presents unique and extraordinary challenges in terms of large scale special event management logistics. This book will attempt to provide a relatively brief holistic overview of the Hajj and some of its problems. The basic aim is to focus on the specific problems of mobility which have been the subject of considerable research. Following a greater elaboration of this issue, an innovative approach to the solutions of such problems using management logistical techniques will be discussed. This copy was inscribed to Father Carney Gavin, believed to be at one time the chief curator of Harvard's Semitic Museum (now disestablished)., Frank Cass & Co, 1989. Hardcover.
