Author Held, a former foreign-service officer in the region, joins with new co-author Cummings, a former USAID economist, in this overview for students and general readers, especially those preparing to live and work in the Middle East. The book can be used for courses in the geography of the Middle East. Part 1 describes the climate and environment of the region and traces its historical-geographical, political, and cultural evolution. This section also examines agriculture, petroleum manufacturing, industry, and geopolitics. Part 2 offers profiles of 11 countries and sub-regions, showing economic patterns, political geography, and demographics, with special attention paid to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. This fifth edition is rewritten to take into account developments over the past five years, with new material on terrorism and the effects of development on women. This edition also adds 16 new photos to the 100+ b&w photos taken by Held during his 50 years of fieldwork and diplomatic assignments in the Middle East.
