What's Really Wrong with the Middle East by Brian Whittaker
A thought provoking counter blast to simplistic Western views about the Middle East. Drawing on a wealth of new research and wide-ranging interviews, Whitaker argues that the solution to the problems in the Middle East lie mainly in the hands of Arabs themselves. Whittaker argues that in order to achieve peace, prosperity and full participation in today’s global economy, Arabs must overcome their own history and embrace not only political change but far-reaching social and cultural change as well.
