A broad source reference

Now in an fully updated edition to take the 9/11 attacks and their repercussions into account, Through Middle Eastern Eyes by academician Robert P. Person (who is also an experienced Peace Corps worker in Afghanistan, Morocco and Libya) and Leon E. Clark (Professor Emeritus of Sociology, American University and consultant to the Ministry of Agriculture in Egypt and the Ministry of Education in Pakistan), provides the reader with a superbly presented history and compelling examination of Middle Eastern culture, ethnic clashes, faiths and evolution. A broad source reference offering particular focus on both ancient and modern wars, Through Middle Eastern Eyes is an excellent and highly recommended contribution to contemporary Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies reference collections and reading lists.
