For Lust Of Knowing by Robert Irwin
Critics include Albert Hourani ( A History of the Arab Peoples, 1991), Robert Graham Irwin ( For Lust of Knowing: The Orientalists and their Enemies, 2006), Nikki Keddie ( An Islamic Response to Imperialism, 1968), and Bernard Lewis (" The Question of Orientalism", Islam and the West, 1993).

Despite the book's wide-ranging influence, some have taken issue with the arguments and assumptions of Orientalism.
