Dictionary of the Middle East Book

If ever there were a region of the world in need of a comprehensive dictionary, the Middle East would be that place. With over 1,000 entries, Dilip Hiro makes sense of one of the most volatile, complex, and highly disputed of turfs. From "Aal" to "Zoroastrians," the dictionary covers the Arab-Israeli Wars, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, literary personalities, and hostages. There are clear explanations of ethnic groups, political ideologies, tourist destinations, and 14 country profiles. Hiro's book is a remarkable reference, adding lucidity to a region traditionally enshrouded in conflict and misunderstanding. Devoid of any noticeable bias, all sides are represented with rigorous attention to accuracy and clarity. All this plus a comprehensive index makes Hiro's dictionary unusually valuable to students, journalists, business people, inquisitive travelers, and anyone else who wishes to get a handle on the Middle East. --Stephanie GoldRead More
