Last Chance by David Gardner
Looks at why conflict, despotism and sectarianism continue to flourish in the Arab world whilst as they decline everywhere else.
'Timely, absorbing, and deeply disturbing�� Last Chance is central to any understanding of the problems and prospects of the Middle East in the 21st century' - Avi Shlaim, Professor of International Relations, St Antony's College, Oxford 'David Gardner's book is the most lively, well-informed and controversial overview of the Middle East to appear for several years. It will instruct, entertain, but also infuriate many readers, because his rapier thrusts invariably strike home. To understand this turbulent region, this is a must read. David Gardner is one of Britain's leading foreign affairs experts. His sources are unique, his range awesome and his indictment of Arab tyranny and Western connivance devastating and unanswerable.' - Patrick Seale.
