A lucid and expertly written guide to the Middle East with chapters on every country.

Chapters look at the roles of oil, the Palestinian question and the rise of the religionist fundamentalism on the area. An invaluable resource guide for anyone wanting to understand the tangled political rivalries, and the often complex histories of the Middle East countries and their relationship with the rest of the world.
