This book explores the evolution of Islamic institutions and culture, the influence of the West, the modernization efforts of Middle Eastern governments, the struggle of various peoples for political independence, the Arab-Israeli conflict, the reassertion of Islamic values and power, the issues surrounding the Palestinian Question, and the post-9/11 Middle East.

The eleventh edition has been fully revised to reflect the most recent events in, and concerns of, the region, including an expanded and more nuanced discussion of the "War on Terrorism" and the Arab uprisings, coverage of the rise of ISIS, and a new chapter on the growing environmental problems of the region. In addition, the authors have incorporated new scholarship on the early history to provide a fuller picture of the political shifts and socioeconomic concerns of that time. With updated bibliographical sketches, chronology and glossary, A Concise History of the Middle East remains an essential text for students of Middle East history. 606 $aHistory 606 $aMiddle East$yHistory 606 $aMiddle East$xStudy and teaching 606 $aMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xHistory 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aMiddle East 615 0$aMiddle East$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aMiddle East. 676 $a956 700 $aGoldschmidt Jr$b Arthur$01670979 701 $aBoum$b Aomar$01617995 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819635803321 996 $aA Concise History of the Middle East$94033194 997 $aUNINA
