Über diesen Titel
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.
