Robin Wright is an award-winning journalist who has reported from more than 140 countries for The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, CBS News, The New Yorker, and other major news outlets. She is the author of The Last Great Revolution.

A magnificent reckoning with the extraordinary changes engulfing the Middle East, by Robin Wright, one of our greatest reporters on the region.

The Barnes & Noble Review

One of the presumed justifications for the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq, and the subsequent occupation, was to bring democracy and political stability to the entire Middle East. As Robin Wright, who has covered the Middle East for over 30 years for The Washington Post, makes wonderfully clear in this important, highly illuminating, and provocative book, the goals of regional democracy and stability may be mutually exclusive.
