Product Description

Review

"I know of no book written in English in the last ten years that does so much to explain one of the most complex, important, and closed societies in the world. It is also a book whose very real criticisms of Saudi Arabia are mixed with understanding, sympathy, and hope. It is an outstanding example of scholarship that crosses religious and national boundaries."
-Anthony H. Cordesman, Georgetown University

Product Description

This much-revised edition of Professor Abir's Saudi Arabia in the Oil Era now includes consideration of both Gulf Wars. Abir examines the social and political forces that have shaped Saudi Arabia, including the impact of Islam and of Westernization, drawing heavily on Saudi sources. There is also essential analysis of regional security dilemmas and of the country's prospects in the post-Gulf War era.
