Inside the Middle East: The Classic Guide to the Most Dangerous and Complicated Region on Earth is a GPS to help you navigate the dramatically changing Middle East.

AcclaimedIsraeli intelligence analyst Avi Melamed has spent more than thirty years interpreting Middle East affairs. His classic book Inside the Middle East challenges widely-accepted perceptions and provides a gripping and uniquely enlightening guide to make sense of the events in the region—to answer how the Arab world got to this point, the ramifications, the impact on Israel, and what actions should be considered.

Melamed considers all the major power players in the Middle East, explains the underlying issues, and creates a three-dimensional picture, an illustration that connects the dots and provides a fascinating roadmap. He elucidates developments such as the Arab Spring, the downfall of the Muslim Brotherhood, the rise of ISIS, the epic Sunni-Shiite animosity, the essence of the war in Syria, the role of the Caliphate and Jihad, and the looming nuclear arms race. He also provides a rare opportunity to journey into the psyche of Arab society. Look through the lens of its leaders and its most ruthless terrorists. See what makes them tick and what they want. Discover how they can be overtaken.

This unparalleled volume is a milestone in our understanding of the Middle East. It is the untold story of the struggles that shape the region, and the world, and a groundbreaking guide that will challenge what we think, force us to reevaluate our outlook, and help us navigate the future.
