"Alex Lennon and "The Washington Quarterly" have again compiled a much needed collection of leading articles, this time on the critical issues swirling in the Middle East. The sometimes disparate subjects of strategy, politics, radicalism, democracy, energy, and negotiation have been woven seamlessly together into a masterful collection that will allow both the well initiated and the simply interested to come away with a deeper understanding of the forces that are driving the modern Middle East."--Kurt M. Campbell, CEO and co-founder, the Center for a New American Security (CNAS)
