"Best book on the recent Middle East -- both hopeful and depressing. Hopeful -- the great number of democracy movements in the middle east. Depressing -- the negative effect which the American involvement in Iraq has had on those same movements.
"Nice overview of the Middle East. She has extensive experience in the area (over 30 years, I believe she said) and has interviewed many key and sideline players. It seems well balanced and thoughtful. It covers a lot of territory - yes, pun intended - and is not I guesss the word is a 'comprehensive' history of the Middle East, but it is an excellent starting point in understanding some of the important issues, peoples, religions, and arguments involved in this area. She discusses the Palestinians, Egypt, Lebonon, Syria, Morocco, Iran, the Kurds, and Iraq each in separate sections with interview notes and a light historical perspective. My overall impression of the book is that the Middle Eastern peoples are struggling through fairly normal, although certainly not peaceful or humane, growing pains following their fairly recent release from colonial and/or dynastic rules. It's is worth reading and re-reading."
