The What Every American Should Know series returns with a timely guide to the region Americans need to understand the most (and know the least)
The latest edition of Melissa RossiA's popular What Every American Should Know series gives a crash course on one of the most complex and important regions of the world. In this comprehensive and engaging reference book, Rossi offers a clear analysis of the issues playing out in the Middle East, delving into each countryA's history, politics, economy, and religions. Having traveled through the area over the past year, she exposes firsthand the U.S.A's geopolitical moves and how our presence has affected the regionA's economic and political development. Topics include:
Au Why Iran is viewed as a threat by most Middle East countries
Au What resource is more important than petroleum in regional power plays
Au WhatA's really behind the fighting between Sunni and Shia
Au How Saudi Arabia inadvertently feeds the violence in Iraq and beyond
Au How monarchies like those in Jordan and Qatar are more open and progressive than the so-called republics
With answers that will surprise many Americans, and covering a vast history and cultural complexity that will fascinate any student of the world, What Every American Should Know About the Middle East is a must-read introduction to the most critical region of the twenty-first century.
