Acerca de este título
The Middle East is notoriously complex and difficult. This compact audiobook on the topic by the University of Oxford's leading expert does not shirk the challenge. Organised thematically, and dealing with all the pivotal issues in the region, from oil and religion, to gender and conflict, this comprehensive primer is both easy to listen to and full of insight. Stuffed with historical background, real-life examples, profiles of key figures from Nasser to Gadaffi, and even popular jokes from the area, The Middle East will captivate tourists, students, and the interested general reader alike.

At this moment in history it is more essential than ever to understand the region. Whether you are planning to visit the Middle East and are wanting to be informed, or whether you just feel like you'd like to learn more, this book is a good place to begin.
