"The Middle East (editor Ellen Lust) is the most comprehensive textbook on the Middle East and its diverse countries. . . It brings the most up-to-date data, thorough analysis, and information by leading scholars to the fingertips of ‘budding scholars’ of the region at our universities. The book is a keeper on our bookshelves for use as a reference material." -- Heba F. El-Shazli, PhD
"Written by a group of well-known experts and researchers who have diligently worked and updated the book since its first edition to include the most important features of state, polity, and governance in [the] Middle East and North Africa . . . This book is equally useful for instructors and students." -- Jalil Roshandel
