"The Meaning of Icons" by Vladimir Lossky and ..cant remember the other guy.. is THE definitive book on Byzantine and Orthodox iconography. Accept no substitute.

Don't confuse the fall of the West with the fall of Christianity, Anon.

Exceptional pop-history book, with some really obscure research. Also recommending Laurus as fiction.

There has been no fall

Nice meme but Islam won't win.

Christopher Dawson is the greatest historian on the topic. He has a series of books on the formation and dispersion of Christendom but I don't know the English title since I've read a portuguese translation. He also has a good book called Progress and Religion, on the religious aceptions of time, knowledge and technology.
