Middle East Rules of Thumb is of interest to anyone that seeks a better understanding of the complexities of the Middle East–its history, politics, diplomacy, and culture. Through the 50 rules and their appendices, Professor Steven Carol offers a realistic historical perspective on this important region.
As has been constantly pointed out by such media monitors as Honest Reporting, Palestine Media Watch, and CAMERA, Middle East issues can often become muddled and confusing, particularly since the mainstream media often commits sins of biased omission – leaving out important information that can help the public comprehend the entire picture. The highly reliable information presented in Middle East Rules of Thumb seeks to counteract these inaccuracies. Readers will gain insight by applying these rules when hearing or reading news or commentaries on these subjects.
This book’s relevance to the current Middle-East crisis is based on hard, carefully researched, facts. This book should accompany any examination of information appearing in the media. News, editorials, and popular literature on this highly-controversial subject are often plagued by inaccurate information, or even disinformation. Anyone who wishes to understand the complex problems at hand, and especially those who wish to comment or write about them, will greatly benefit from this book. It will prevent them from making common and not so common mistakes for lack of adequate knowledge.
Available in hardcover or paperback.
At: Barnes and Noble.com, Amazon.com or from The Historian.
