The Grains of Ancient EgyptProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 22, 2018

Why Atheism is Necessary Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 22, 2018

He and I - a brief memoir of parallel livesProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
August 30, 2018
We were born just four years apart; I in 1943 in a middle-class suburb of Cairo, Egypt and he in 1947, in small-town USA. We met formally around 1960, but have been inseparable in the nearly six decades since then, keeping company and supporting one another as dear friends do.
When Books Span the Art and Science DivideProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry

Why reading Alfarabi is so relevant today Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
September 10, 2018

From Nubia, with LoveProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry

The Aswan High Dam: Egypt triumph over imperial bullyingProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
March 20, 2019
On January 9, 1960 construction had just begun on the High Dam project south of Aswan in my native Egypt. I had celebrated my 16th birthday just a couple of weeks earlier on December 24, 1959. I was finishing my last year of high school and preparing to study engineering at Cairo University. Growing up during the 1950s, I was fully aware of country's hard struggle against the ugly imperial powers of the world.
